Olson Outlook
Week of November 1st
News from the Olson Office
*The new schedule starts on Monday, November 15th.
*School hours will be 7:20 AM-1:40 PM.
*Arrival will start at 7:10 AM instead of our current 7:20 AM time.
*If your child is a car rider and you need to continue the 2:00 pick-up time at the end of the day instead of the new 1:40 time, please call the office and we will be happy to make supervision arrangements until 2:00.
*In order to speed up our arrival procedures, please have your child exit your car anywhere in the horseshoe drive, not just in front of the school or at the stop sign. If we can unload cars 10-12 at a time, it will decrease the amount of time cars are waiting on Judd Street. Monday is orchestra day and Friday is band day, so we understand that those days may go a little slower due to large instruments for our 4th and 5th grade students. Thank you for your continued efforts in the morning at arrival!

From the Art Room
The students received their envelopes last week and there is a quick turn around as they are due back this Friday, November 5th.
The printed cards will be delivered to classrooms before December 17 for the students to take home as possible holiday gifts.
Thanks for your support and cooperation on this special art room project. Your children have been so excited about this! ~Mrs. Kuhn
