Trader Joe’s generously donated their delicious apple cider, and thank you to the Olson families who donated through the Walmart wishlist!

Our giveaway winner for a cute Vera Bradley travel tote was Ms. Bussey! 🍎

From the Council PTA Delegate, Monica Ramirez: Please help me in congratulating both Katrina Wallace and Olena Anderson for a wonderful job well done with the Fall Book Fair, Grandparents Night, and our Fall Fest.

We had a great turn out and wonderful feedback from the Olson staff, students, and parents as well as our local community.

Thank you ladies for all your hard work and time it did not go unnoticed!

The Character Trait for the month of November is Citizenship!

Citizenship is defined as the qualities that a person is expected to have as a responsible member of a community. We demonstrate our citizenship by showing respect, honesty, compassion, courage, etc. Good citizens are willing to learn, work hard, protect the environment, help others, respect people and property, and are considerate. Each of us are members of multiple communities – home, school, local community, and digitally.

This month, talk to your children about how they can be good citizens in the different areas, as well as have them provide examples. Also discuss with them their rights and responsibilities of citizenship.
