In 2015, we gave our teachers' lounge a makeover! It came to our attention that the space allocated for the teachers' lounge was rather dismal. We took it to a vote and decided to update the space into an inviting place for the OMS staff to relax while eating their lunch. This was not an easy task as the lounge is located in the basement in a room with no windows. We are very proud of the new look that has been achieved. The OMS staff is now regularly eating lunch in the lounge and it is also used for teaming, tutoring and luncheons. We are so happy we were able to give something back to our teachers to let them know how much we appreciate them.

We spent ~$4500 on the updates which included: four counter height tables and chairs, a couch, a side-by-side refrigerator, cabinets, counter top, sink & faucet, trash cans and more. Click

The lounge is now an inviting space our teachers will be able to enjoy for years to come. Thank you for your contributions to the PTO that made a project like this possible.
