Message from Our Principal, Mrs. Mona Morgan
January has been a very busy month. Students are back in their regular routine and already working hard on their third quarter curriculum. February is sometimes referred to as the love month. I would like to encourage every household within the Osan community to celebrate the love of reading during the month of February. Many years ago, Dorothy Law Nolte, Ph. D. wrote a poem called “Children Learn What They Live.” I have referred to this poem on many occasions for various reasons. Today, I reflect on one additional statement that reads, “If children live with reading as a leisure pastime, they learn that the world is at their fingertips.”
