Book Club
A book club organized and led by advanced-level readers who enjoy participating in thought-provoking literary discussions.
Do you love to read for pleasure? Are you one of those kids who can’t put a book down? Well this is the seminar to you. You will read high interest and challenging books, discuss them with other students from school, then discuss them with other students at from other Howard County middle schools? We welcome anyone interested in reading novels at their own pace and then participating in discussion circles. Not only does OMMS's book club members meet once or twice a month here at school, but students have an opportunity to discuss the book with other students from around the county once a month at a countywide discussion at the library. These discussions are student led and take place in the evenings from 7:00-8:00 pm.
Countywide discussions will be held at one of the Howard County Libraries from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm.
