"I got my passion for teaching from my grandma. She has been working as a teacher for 30 years. Teaching has been my passion for a long time and I'm excited to begin working this semester!" - Jordan Ohlrich, student teacher at @OPS_SpringLake. ops.org/careers

.@OPS_SpringLake celebrated a huge first day as staff and students returned to their permanent location this month following renovations. Updates include 10 new classrooms, HVAC improvements and more. Read about this and all 25 projects districtwide at ops.org/bond.

Readers Become Leaders kicked off last week at @OPS_SpringLake with the help of Dr. Logan, the @NCAA and @CWSOmaha staff! Third grade students were able to select books and take them home to build their home libraries.

Monday, March 7, 2022, will be a remote learning day for all Omaha Public Schools students. Our Teacher Administrative Center (TAC) will be open.

.@OPS_SpringLake students visited the @joslynartmuseum this month to see an exhibit by Yuyi Morales, an author & illustrator. Morales will visit our dual language elementary schools in April. Thanks to the @OPS_Foundation for your support in making these visits possible!

Tuesday's lesson at @OPS_SpringLake focused on kindness. Counselor Evan Halpain helped students with a project that included sorting examples of kind and unkind actions. Another example of our counselors supporting student learning! #OPSProud #NationalSchoolCounselingWeek
