Principal’s News

Students read a total of 50,295 minutes during our 12-day Read-A-Thon. What an incredible accomplishment! Thank you families and OVE staff for your support, not only with encouraging students to read daily, but for gathering pledges for our ASB fund. We raised an astounding $4,449 dollars. These funds will be used to offset the cost of transportation when our students travel to Olympia Junior Programs, grade-level field trips, and more. Thank you again for your support of Olympic View.

Top Reading Minutes by class… Mr. Storedahl, 3rd grade 7,900 minutes Mrs. Bailey, 4th grade 7,598 minutes

Top Reading Minutes at each grade-level… Callea Riddle, Kindergarten 453 minutes Ethan Herring, 1st grade 1,065 minutes Bryson Smith, 2nd grade 1,049 minutes Brooke Bundt, 3rd grade 1,693 minutes

Owen Tracy, 4th grade 1,374 minutes Anna Tracy, 5th grade 910 minutes I also want to acknowledge and thank our many wonderful volunteers. There are several ways you provide service to our school: classroom support, student 1 on 1 support, OJP, attending PTA meetings, field trip chaperones, staff appreciation, and our book fair.

On behalf of the staff members at Olympic View, I want to thank you for your support, time, and dedication to our school.

Kindly,

Casey Wyatt, Principal
