🥈 Sawyer Laflan – 2nd Place

Last night, the OMS 7th-grade volleyball team played in McCook. Despite weather warnings, delays, and changing schedules, the team showed GRIT and played all the games that were scheduled (when it was safe to do so)!
Even though the team lost, they learned so much, bonded (while sheltering in a restroom), and gave it their all. We are proud of you!

Congratulations to Taytin for "Earning the O!" He's been a rockstar in Mrs. Orth's class! Keep up the great effort, Taytin! #CultureofConfidence

Triton consistently demonstrates grit by persevering through challenges, takes risks by stepping outside their comfort zone to try new ideas, and shows ownership by taking responsibility for their learning and actions. Congratulations, Triton! #CultureofConfidence

Mrs. Orth recognized the strong work ethic that Nevaeh has displayed so far this year. That effort didn't go unnoticed and led to Nevaeh being nominated for our "Earned the O!" initiative. "Earned the O!, recognizes students and staff who support our culture of building confident learners, and helping them GROW (Grit, Risk-Taking, OWnership) to "Earn the O!" and always support the OPSD vision of #CultureofConfidence.

Way to go, Nevaeh!
