Sunny weather welcomes back students

Dear OLG Families,
Growth opportunities abound for our school in this a special Monday morning edition! Welcome back from our Easter Break! It certainly has felt like spring with weather warming and much going on...
These and many more volunteer opportunities (including getting a jumpstart on Parent Org for 2021-22)... deadline for logging volunteer hours is May 31st.
As the weather improves and we move towards Summer, we also think ahead to next year. Employment opportunities is one way our community grows. Enrollment and Registration is another, and is moving along at brisk pace! Check you FACTS for Re-registration status/payments. While classes are full or filling in some grades, we do have openings for more students in our Fall Kindergarten and 5th Grades, and limited opening in other grades. Please keep in mind the referral you make is the strongest way we grow our community! Thank you for all you do!
