PARENT CONFERENCES - PLEASE COMPLETE THE SURVEY!
When you are at Olson we will ask each family to complete the annual D200 School Survey.
You are encouraged to schedule a conference with our Fine Arts teachers, too. They are available to meet to answer any questions or to share information about your child's progress in art, STEAM, music, and PE.

OCTOBER IS FIRE SAFETY MONTH
TIPS FOR FAMILIES:
- Install smoke alarms on every level of your home.
- Test smoke alarms every month.
- Talk with all family members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year.
- If a fire occurs in your home, GET OUT, STAY OUT and CALL FOR HELP.
FIGHT THE FLU!
Flu season is around the corner! Protect yourself and your family this season with an annual flu vaccine for everyone in your family who is 6 months and older. While the timing of the flu season is unpredictable, seasonal flu activity can begin as early as October and last as late as May. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends that peope get vaccinated by the end of October, if possible. It takes two weeks after vaccination for antibodies to develop in the body that protect against influenza virus infection.
You have the power to protect your family against flu this season. Get yourself and your family a flu vaccine. Fight the flu! Learn more at http://www.preventchildhoodinfluenza.org/keep-flu-out-of-school/parentsguardians.
