You will notice that Ms. O has many items reminiscent of nature in her classroom. On the first day of school, Ms. O gives you a field trip waiver for you to sign, thus enabling you and your other classmates to go on walks. Ms. O’s love for nature started when was young. She loves aquatic animals and will go fishing anytime. She has enjoyed  taking photographs for “what feels like forever!”

Ms. O loves the ocean. Her favorite colors are blue and green because she feels drawn to it. Before Ms. O  was a teacher at PCS, she lived in Arizona during her childhood and later moved to LA.
