PreK and Kindergarten teachers participated in professional learning today on developmentally appropriate play. They are actively assessing their practice and thinking about different ways to engage students in developmentally appropriate ways. It was a great morning!
We would like to remind our families that we have a District non-profit, the Spartan Promise Council, that exists to remove barriers for students. This non-profit is funded by individual community members and generous church donations. If your Olympia child needs food, clothing, or some other type of assistance, please reach out to our Student Support Specialist, Cari Roop (cari.roop@olympia.org). While there are food pantries in our communities, we also have a Spartan Market on the OHMS campus. The QR code on the flyer allows you to make a request. We hope that these services can help support our students during these challenging times.
