We celebrated Fire prevention day at OSE yesterday. Thanks to all of our firemen and women for teaching us about fire safety. We had an "out of the blue" celebration for a group of students who have been earning those blue spartan tickets!

Elementary students attending an OHS event need to be accompanied by an adult. If an elementary student shows up without an adult, they will not be allowed to enter into the game / event. We are asking elementary students to sit in the stands during the games due to the safety concerns that have already surfaced during our first home game. Thank you to our parents for understanding we are striving to create a safe experience for all our spectators. Go Spartans!

Meet Cari Roop.
Olympia has revamped the previous family coordinator role and it is now Student Support Services. I, Cari Roop, have taken on this role. I am here to troubleshoot barriers for students and families, provide actionable steps in providing necessary resources for students and families to be successful at school, and offer support. Please do not hesitate to reach out with concerns or issuesto me at the school. I will do my best to help. No request is too big or too small. If I cannot help immediately; I will look for ways. Here are some examples of ways I can support: needed clothing or shoes for school, food for the night or weekend, coats for cooler weather, ideas on ways to encourage your child to attend school, etc.
