FSA Coupon Book Sale

Hello families. I would like to extend my gratitude in all the efforts made towards a fantastic job in selling coupon books. Great job.

I would like to share that all monies need to be turned in before the order is placed. So please, if you turned in an order without money, please send that in, in an envelope, so your child gets credit.

In addition, we have about 100 families that have not returned their child's book or monies for orders taken. You will receive written notification in your child's Tuesday folder.

All orders are pending upon the return of all students books.

Thank you again for your cooperation and dedication. Please call me at 835-5046 or 450-7239 with any questions. Have a great week. God bless & Peacefully, Tina Vergotz

Welcome back! The FSA is pleased to announce we were able to receive over $2,300 last year from the Box Tops for Education Program. Way To Go Crusaders!

The FSA is asking for your support again this school year and there is a new incentive! If we reach $2,500 in Box Tops by the end of the school year all students will receive a dress down day! Tell your family and friends to clip those Box Tops and send them in to your child's homeroom teacher.

With your help, we can make OLP's Box Tops for Education

program a huge success again this year.

Thank you for your help!

Summer Reading

Have you been doing the OLP Summer Reading Challenge? There is still time! Each student who reads 15 or more books will earn a Dress Down Day. If the whole school reads 1500 or more books everyone will earn a frozen treat!
