Thank You Corner!

Last week our children participated in the Everybody Counts program. Your kids may have come home to tell you about the specific disability they learned about during the classroom presentations. Disability awareness and understanding is the goal of this wonderful program. We would like to send a big "THANK YOU" out to Christine Gilbert & Amy Slowinske for their time and commitment in running this program for the last 3 years. They have done an amazing job organizing this week long event.  Unfortunately, they will be stepping away next year. Please let us know if you are interesting in Co-Chairing this committee by emailing Olive PTA.

Volunteers Needed: Just Move It! Challenge
 
We NEED Volunteers! Over 75 volunteers are needed to make the Just Move It! Challenge race day a success! Street Marshall volunteers are needed for both the 5K and 1 Mile races. This is a great way to cheer on family and friends while they run or walk! You can help and still be a part of the fun!

Please visit http://www.jmichallenge.org for Registration, Volunteering and Event Details!
