ORES Newsletter
We are sharing a few highlights from the past two weeks of school. Mrs. Madsen's class had jitter juice (green Hawaiian juice and sprite) after they compared their first day of school stories and talked about emotions. Mrs. Holmes' kindergarten students spent time doing creative movement in music with scarves. They were all smiles!
Reminders:
The SEMO fair is coming up! We have several students showing animals at the fair. SEMO fair attendance forms for students showing animals will be coming home in back packs. Please call the office if you need an attendance for for your child that is showing at the fair.
2022-2023 Yearbook orders are on sale for $10 off until September 16th. The goal of the yearbook staff is to sell 60 copies. Yearbook order forms were sent home with students last week. If you need an order form, feel free to contact the office. 2021-2022 Yearbooks have arrived not yet but we expect them to arrive by the end of October.
Meals are not free for everyone this year. Remember to check meal balances through the parent portal and keep them current. If you need a free/reduced meal form throughout the year, contact the office. Early childhood meals are already included with their daily tuition fee.
Before and After School Care fees and Early Childhood (preschool) fees can be paid at the elementary office or online through the school website under Menu, Community & Alumni, School store. The early childhood entrance also has a lock box if you want to leave payments in the lock box.
Please feel free to reach out if you have questions, need help with school supplies, or need resources to help students be successful at school.
Sincerely,
