Freaky Fridays
Where Kids Lead OMO


Calling all students! Do you have a favorite subject, hobby, or fandom that you'd love to share?

We want to give you a space to hang out with your friends (and make new ones) talking about the topics that are most interesting to you. Come take over OMO on Fridays after your school work is done!

Your sessions could be your version of other sessions, such as Women in Government or Solving World Hunger. You could lead a group on your favorite series or fandom. Teach us proper training techniques for your favorite sports, host a dance party, share your skill for building, or teach us a craft.

HS students: Service Learning Hours available
ES students require parental assistance
