We received $110.00 from Computer Supplies Unlimited for our recent submission of used ink cartridges. Thanks to all who save & send those in!
Everyone is invited to a “Slide Show of the Holy Land” on Thursday, April 14th at 1:30 pm in the Center gymnasium. The presentation will be 30 to 45 minutes long and promises to be very interesting. All school children will be in attendance and all community members are very welcome to attend.
We will have our annual Easter Egg Hunt on the morning of Holy Thursday, before we break for Easter. The hunt will be for students in Grades preschool through 4th. As usual, the older students will be hiding the eggs. Please send in ONE DOZEN CANDY FILLED EGGS by Monday, April 18th for your preschool through 4th grader. Eggs should be filled with candy that won’t melt in the sun and also no peanut butter products please. Older students who are feeling left out may bring treats to share that morning. Thanks to all for sending in the eggs!
Good luck to all students attending the Spelling Bee on Tuesday! We will have results in next week’s notes.
THE READING
Stations of the Cross – each Friday during Lent at 2:15 pm. School children may be dismissed from church after the Stations if they bring a note that day (this allows teachers to know that the student should bring his/her book bag to church). Otherwise, students will be dismissed from the gym at 3:00 pm, as usual.
The 4th Annual OLOS School Crappie Tournament will be held next Saturday, April 16, 2011, at Coffman Beach , Lake Ozark
CALLING ALL GREEN THUMBS AND WILLING WORKERS: Help is needed this spring & summer to help keep the school flower beds & bushes weeded & watered. Rex & Jeanne Buechter, Gina Adrian, Bryan & Stacey Evers, Lori Evers, Lynn Kempker, Nancy Kliethermes, Carla Morris, Rosie Beck & Marie Massman have volunteered but more help is needed. A weekly rotation worked well last year and will probably by implemented this year (there was enough help last year that most families were only assigned 2X).To volunteer please call the school office or contact Jeanne Buechter.
8th grade graduation: Please remember the dress guidelines for graduates: Boys – dress pants, collared shirt, dress shoes, tie is optional; Girls – dresses, no more than 2 inches above the knee, no spaghetti straps showing, (may wear shawl to cover). Students will be wearing caps & gowns for the graduation & the awards portion of the reception. Cap & gown fee is $8.50, which you may go ahead & send in (checks payable to OLOS).
We have had two 7th grade parents volunteer to help coordinate the 8th grade graduation. Traditionally, 7th grade parents have set up for and hosted the reception. Would you like to help? If so, contact the school office. We thank Paulette Pringer & Sheila Adrian for volunteering to help.
