Winter Recess
Remember that next week is Winter Recess, and schools are closed February 15-19. We will return on Monday, February 22.
Spirit Week at OR was fun!
Not only did the children enjoy the daily themes, but adults, too. Abraham Lincoln, Amelia Earheart, and Alexander Hamilton were just a few of the people who joined us on Time Travel Day!
Health and Wellness Reminders
Thank you for your cooperation as we continue our efforts to keep one another COVID free and otherwise healthy. Here are a couple of reminders which need your attention, for the good of all:
If your child is returning to school after having a COVID test, please be sure to provide us with the negative test result either before your child returns via fax or email, or send a paper copy with your child upon return. We cannot have a child in attendance while awaiting official COVID test results.
Similarly, if a child is returning to school with a negative COVID test result but has been sick from something that is not COVID related, your child must be fever free for at least 24 hours, and any other symptoms must be improving before they return.
#PositivityInAction
When we return from Winter Recess on February 22, we will practice having an “other people matter” mindset by cheering others’ success, and practice showing genuine support and praise for someone else when they accomplish a goal. We will also focus on humility being our character strength of the week. Having humility, or modesty, is a sign of strength; it means you don’t seek the spotlight for yourself, but have quiet confidence in your abilities yet know that you always have room to improve.
