Last Friday, Olympia Middle School students enjoyed a special opportunity to take part in teacher-led clubs during an extended advisory period. These club days are a favorite at OMS—held on the first Friday of each month—and give teachers a chance to share their hobbies and passions with students in a fun, hands-on way.
With more than 25 clubs to choose from, students can explore a wide range of interests, including Sign Language, Junk Journaling, 3D Printing, Birdwatching, Yoga, and No-Bake Cooking, just to name a few! The building was filled with excitement as students tried new things, learned new skills, and connected with friends and teachers outside the regular classroom routine.
It was wonderful to see so many smiles and hear so much laughter as students discovered new interests and talents. We can’t wait to do it all again when OMS Clubs meet next on Friday, November 7th!
