Who Am I non fiction historical figure book reports.

Dear OSS Families,

Welcome back from winter break; it feels like winter has truly arrived!

We kicked off 2025 energetically, and encourage you to join us!

This week, among other things, 5th graders made movies using green screens in Creative Suite class, and in Humanities they wrote book reports about historical figures. Enjoy these fun photos.
