🏐 The Ultimate Dodgeball Showdown! 🏐
Dodge, duck, dip, dive, and... dodge! 💨
The energy was electric Friday at Olympia South as our Staff took on the ultimate challengers in our Dodgeball Showdown! This wasn't just any game—the staff faced off against our PTO Dodgeball Tournament winners AND two special "Dream Teams" of students!
✨ Winners on and off the court
These lucky students were surprised with a spot on the roster after having their names drawn for consistently:
Being Kind, Being Safe and Being Ready to Learn.
The students brought the speed, but the staff brought the "old school" strategy (and maybe some sore shoulders for the next day🧊👀). The gym was filled with nothing but cheers and Olympia South spirit!

Way to go, Spartans! 💙

[ 120 Days of Making Magic at the Happiest Place on Earth...1st Grade at OSE! ]
On Thursday, first graders at South celebrated all of the growth, learning and fun that has happened in our first 120 days, Disney style!
Students learned about the four parks of Disney World and modes of Disney transportation. They were able to get our itinerary set up with correct times, measure characters to determine if they were tall enough to ride the rides, were given a budget with a snack menu to decide what treats they would get, completed a ride review of their favorite ride of the day and wrote a post card letter to tell their families about our day. In between our work, we were able to virtually ride four rides, catch a show and a parade, and ended the day at Cinderella's castle for the fireworks show.
Based on the smiles, squeals and screams throughout our day, it's safe to say the 120th day was the most magical day in first grade!!
The Oly South PTO hosted a dodgeball tournament for our students today. Congratulations to everyone who participated for a fun-filled day. You were all wonderful examples of great sportsmanship!
It was a red carpet day at Olympia South Elementary! 🎬✨
Today we surprised our students with a movie-themed celebration to honor the incredible growth each class demonstrated on their recent assessment tests. From the moment they walked in and saw the decorations — and especially the red carpet runway — the excitement was priceless!
Students were genuinely shocked when they saw just how much growth they had achieved — not only as individuals, but together as a class community. The smiles, cheers, and confidence on display reminded us that growth deserves to be recognized in big ways.
We are so proud of our Olympia South students and the dedicated staff who support them every step of the way. 🌟
Here’s to continued growth, learning, and shining bright! #OlympiaSouth #SpartanPride

At Olympia South Elementary, we believe that being a Spartan means more than just doing well in class—it means being a great neighbor and a supportive friend. The month of January, our focus was on Community Building and Caring for Others.
These selected students have gone above and beyond to make our school a kinder, more inclusive place. Whether it was helping a classmate in need, including someone new at recess, or simply spreading positivity, these Super Spartans are leading by example!

First graders at South are busy learning about our communities and what makes them special! Today, we learned about maps and all of their features. Students then worked in groups to create maps of our classrooms.
We worked on listening and communication to be good teammates!
