Growing and Glowing at Olds!
This week we are shining a light on our Kindergarten students in Art class. After completing some incredible snowpeople artwork, students then engaged on a “gallery walk”. Students walked around to view other students' artwork and could be seen giving positive feedback to others. “I like how they draw the hat with two different colors.” Our kindergarten students were showing great observational skills, showing kindness to others, and verbalizing their reflections. Keep growing and glowing Kindergarten!
2025 Scripps Spelling Bee at Olds
Congratulations to all of our students who participated in the Olds Spelling Bee this week. Campus was a buzz after the Bee! Students showed grit and dedication and we are proud of their efforts and accomplishments.
Congratulations to our top finishers: 1st Shayaan in 4th grade, 2nd Mahreen in 2nd grade, and 3rd Maeve in 4th grade.
Dismissal Reminders
Parents, please support a smooth dismissal process by following these reminders. Students who are independent walkers should leave campus immediately after being dismissed. If your child is a parent pick up walker, they should not be coming outside until that group is dismissed. Lastly, families who are staying outside after dismissal, it is imperative that children are being supervised. Thank you for your collaboration with us on making dismissal as smooth as possible.
