2nd Grade Lesson Mrs. Kenney's class was learning about the effects that water erosion has on land. The kids loved seeing the many different ways that water can change a landscape. It was great to watch them working together in such a fun way! | OPA Early Childhood Learning Center coming soon! Construction has begun on our new facility! It is scheduled to open in the fall of 2023. We appreciate your patience with the minor inconveniences that construction will inevitably bring. On Wednesday, October 29 (tomorrow) at 12:30 we will have our official groundbreaking ceremony! Anyone that would like to attend is welcome to do so. | Third Lane Closed Because of construction, the southernmost lane will be closed until further notice (left lane in the above picture). Please use the other two lanes to drive thru to pick up your student(s). Something that could help is to have your student(s), if possible, meet you a short distance away from campus after school. |
