Dear OVE Families,
Thank you to all who attended Parent/Teacher Conferences. We place great value on our home–school partnerships and believe this is the best recipe for supporting your student’s learning and well-being.
The students—and most of the staff—really enjoyed celebrating our school-wide fundraiser incentives, especially the staff sliming, dance party, and principal taping to the wall! I am hopeful and optimistic that we raised enough money so that we won’t need to hold another school fundraiser next year. That would give me some time to mentally prepare for whatever surely “memorable” experiences I’ll be selected to participate in next time!
We have some fun and family-friendly events planned for November, including the PTO Book Fair (November 10–14), Junior Achievement Day (November 24), and 3rd Grade Grandparents/VIP Coffee and Cinnamon Rolls (November 25). These are fantastic events that can spark great conversations with your student(s). If you’re looking to become more involved or connected to the school community, there are many opportunities to volunteer or participate in these and other fun school activities. As I often tell our students, “You never know until you try.”
On a final note, I want to commend all parents and guardians for contributing to our continued, fantastic school-wide attendance rate. As the holiday season—and the dreaded flu season—approach, I’m hopeful we can continue working together to maintain excellent student attendance through these sometimes tricky months.
Thank you for your continued support and involvement. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly via email or phone.
Fly Eagles Fly,
Mr. Martin, Principal
