Olympia North

Do you want to build a Snowman? Olympia North Kindergarten and 1st grade students built a Physical Education version of a Snowman during class. Teams had to relay down the gym on a scooter to get a piece of equipment to build the snowman. Then decide how to use the equipment to make their snowman.

Students at Olympia North help set a World Record. On Nov. 14th students at Olympia North and students across the country stacked cups during Physical Education class. The result is a Guinness World Record.

If students want to submit a yearbook cover for the Yearbook Cover Contest they are due by the end of the school day on Thursday, December 19th.

The gift store from Winter Wonderland will be available through Wednesday, 12-18-19 if your child still wants to pick something out!

The Scholastic Book Fair is back for 2 days only with a special BOGO promotion for the holidays!!

As soon as you share the first photo of your kid, you're establishing their digital footprint. As kids get older and start creating their own content or engaging with others online, it's important for them to understand the tracks they're leaving behind and what those tracks might reveal. Parents can help guide kids toward creating the kind of footprint they can be proud of. https://www.commonsense.org/education/family-tips/k-5-digital-footprint-and-identity
