OLVCS Updates
Led By the Spirit..............................April 7, 2020
Good afternoon,
We are following our calendar for Easter, and will not have school Thursday, Friday or Monday. As we enter Holy Week, I hope you are able to spend time each day reflecting on this most holiest of weeks.
We have created a video for you, please click on the link. We do miss all of you!

The Box Tops Program has gone digital! Get the App and help OLV
You will need to get the BoxTops app on your phone, sign up indicating OLV as preferred school and then scan your store receipts.
- It is a very simple process to scan your receipt.
- The app will automatically determine if your receipt contains BoxTops products and will give the school credit for the purchases.
If you are not sure if you purchased any BoxTops products, you can still scan your receipt and the app will just state that there are no eligible products. There are ongoing promotions and sweepstakes in the app as well that will earn the school additional money.
