We are always astounded by the ideas that the Science Fair generates. We know that it is a lot of work – for the students & their parents alike!!! We would especially like to thank our two wonderful judges – who gave up their entire day to talk with our students and listen to their interviews – Bill Feind & Kevin Richards. We could not have done it without you! FANTASTIC JOB EVERYONE & remember – it only happens every OTHER year!!!

The OLOS Student Council will be sponsoring a “Dress In Green” Day for St. Patrick’s Day again this year. We thought we would get the word out early so that you have more of a chance to be creative and find “green” items. We will choose best dressed winners from each class – one boy & one girl. St. Patrick’s Day is March 17th. Thanks to all who supported our Valentine Candygram sales. You are appreciated!
There will be a STUDENT COUNCIL MTG. THIS MONDAY – Feb. 28th until 3:30 pm to take down the Valentine’s decorations and to discuss plans for St. Patrick’s Day & Easter.
Change of menu – Thursday, March 3rd we will have the 7th & 8 gr. favorite meal: Fried Chicken, Mashed Potatoes with gravy, corn & hot rolls.
Mrs. Groose is selling BEEF STICKS at lunchtime. They are $1 each.
LOOKING AHEAD…We will host our BOOKFAIR NIGHT – “A Night of Magic” – on Thursday, March 24th. We will have a magician performing that evening and many other exciting things.
