Dear OLMC Community,

Thank you to so many families who came out for the Movie Night on Saturday! I appreciate all the hard work the Dads’ Club put into making this evening a success. 

Thank you to the Home and School Board who served wonderful lunches to the faculty and staff this week before conferences. The teachers really enjoyed it! 

They also enjoyed meeting with all of you to discuss your child’s/children’s progress during conferences. 

Our Taste of Kindergarten was a success and we are excited to begin enrolling the new kinders for next year. The “big school” will begin the enrollment process before Christmas this year for returning families. More information to come!

We will be hosting an informative webinar on the new Universal ESA process on Mon, Nov 21 at 6:00pm. Register for it here.

We are also beginning our Thanksgiving Food Drive. See the flier below. 

Upcoming this week:

Monday

Dads’ Club has a meeting at 6:00pm at Fate on Southern. All Dads are welcome. Please email olmcdadsclub@gmail.com if you plan on attending, so they reserve enough space for everyone.
