PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

We know our OMS Community is something special. But last week, we were completely overwhelmed with the support and generous donations for our JUST JUMP fundraising activity. This new fundraiser was a HUGE success, raising over $6,800 for the PTA. The money your child earned with sponsorships will be used to fund many of the PTA's programs, clubs and activities for the students (such as Family Bingo Night next Friday evening). We want to recognize and thank our two P.E. teachers, Mrs. Pusateri and Mrs. LaRoe, who made this event successful and fun for all OMS students. The students loved trying new jumping activities and all should be very proud of their hard work. We also want to thank our Fundraising co-chairs Liz McDonnell and Becky Hany. They knew this would be a great addition to OMS and have been working very hard since last year to make it happen. Thanks Olive community, we're jumping for joy this week!
