PROJECT SPLASH

Contacting the Counselor, Mrs. Oliver
Hi, my name is Nicole Oliver, I am Olson’s School Counselor. I can be reached via phone or email, at 972-562-1800 or Nicole.Oliver@allenisd.org.
I am available to students for a variety of needs and they are welcome to see me any time they need. I am also available to help parents. Please reach out to me any time with questions or concerns.


The Character Trait for the month of March is Trustworthiness
Trustworthiness is being deserving of trust, showing dependability, and proving reliability.
Being trustworthy comes from both actions and words, by choosing to be truthful in all that you say and do. It is vital to emphasize the importance of trustworthiness to your children.
Demonstrate and help them understand that trust is important in all types of relationships and is gained over time.

FROM Nurse Jimenez
To 6th grade parents,
In order to comply with entry requirement for 7th Grade, students will be required to have the following immunizations:
Tdap (diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis)
Meningococcal (Must clearly indicate: MCV4, Menveo, Menactra)
I will be putting monthly reminders in your student’s backpack if I do not have documentation of the required immunizations. If you do not receive a reminder, your child is good to register for 7th grade. Please provide this documentation ASAP.
Students cannot start 7th grade without these immunizations. Tdap and meningococcal vaccine for all 6th graders going to 7th grade will be due by May 12, 2023. You may send your updated shot record to veronica.jimenez@allenisd.org.
Thank you for your attention on this matter.
