OLOS School will be in need of a volunteer librarian for the next school year. Jeanne Buechter has served many years, dedicated to our children and their reading and library needs. Jeanne is now considering taking full time employment instead of part-time (she may be available for a little while at the beginning of the next school year still to help out – we will just have to wait and see!) THANK YOU, THANK YOU JEANNE! Words cannot adequately express how much we appreciate your donation of time and talent!!!  In the meantime – if you or someone you know would like to help out next year, any & all help is appreciated. For more information, contact Mrs. Trachsel.
