Our Mission is to Educate AND to Inspire!

We recognize that it is important to deliberately make time to inspire our students. With morning speakers visiting twice weekly and frequent field trips peppering our schedule, we hope to ignite the flame of inspiration in our students' hearts and minds! Today acclaimed artist Robert Freeman spoke about his career and shared his own perspective of his work, currently on display at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. To read more about him, click here.

Freeman's slide show included the renowned painting, Black Tie. 
He explained how he followed his dream.

And he was Mrs. Knight's teacher at Nobles!

What's in your Toolbox?


New staff and students fill the classroom spaces with eagerness, enthusiasm and determination! The Community Core concepts infuse both classrooms and "gray areas." Whether celebrating one another through shooting stars during community meeting or in the individual written comments from teachers, the students at OSS are developing their hearts and minds as they adjust to the longer school days of autumn. Visit us to see what we are all about!
