Executive Order 2020-185
As we comply with this order, please remember to send your child with at least 1 cloth face covering to wear throughout the day. It is a good idea to put an extra in your child's backpack. Masks should be washed periodically.
Each teacher is working on a plan for taking mask breaks throughout the day. These breaks may be in the classroom or outside if the weather permits. It is another procedure for the students to master!
Be a Part of the OPS Success!
What stories do you share about your experience at OPS? What are your hopes and dreams for your child's education? That's what we'd like to hear from you as key stakeholders in our district. We want you to be a part of the Strategic Planning Process and help guide OPS for the next 3-5 years. Hear more from Supt. Haase in the video below and we hope to see you soon! If you are interested in taking part in the Dix Street Strategic Planning Parent Session on October 15th at 6:30 p.m., please fill out the form at THIS LINK. Thank you.
Hybrid Learning PARENT SURVEY
If you haven't already, please complete this short survey for families in the Hybrid Learning Plan. The survey focuses on how the start of the school year has gone for you and your child(ren). I hope you will take a few minutes to complete the survey as we appreciate your feedback. We will post our survey results to our Return to Learn webpage as we did with our parent survey this past summer.

Art Supplies
Hello Dix Street families! My name is Mrs. White and I am new to the district this year. I have been teaching in the Grand Rapids area and am so happy to be joining the OPS team! I will be splitting my time between Dix Street and Alamo Elementaries and I am beyond excited to create with your artists! While donations for Art Room supplies are never expected or required, they are GREATLY APPRECIATED and help limit shared supplies. Below is a list of frequently used art supplies.
FREQUENTLY USED ART SUPPLIES:
COLORED PENCILS (12pk)
CRAYONS (24pk)
BROADLINE MARKERS (10pk)
1 BLACK PERMANENT MARKER
1 PENCIL
1 LARGE ERASER
1 GALLON or QUART SIZE BAG (to keep each student’s supplies)
Individual supplies brought in by your student will only be used by your student. If a supply is needed (scissors, glue bottles, paint brushes, etc.), students will be allowed to use district materials. The district materials will be sanitized prior to being used and after being used. Thank you for your continued support! Please reach out with any questions!

EMERGENCY CONTACT INFORMATION
It is extremely important to have up-to-date contact information available for each student. When emergencies arise, we need to be able to contact parents/guardians. This is also the contact information that is used for school closures and district updates.
Please log in to the Infinite Campus Parent Portal to check that your contact information is current and to make any necessary changes. If you need assistance or login information for the Parent Portal, please contact the Dix Street OfficeThank You!
