Olive students in grades K-5 who are interested in chess are invited to join the Chess Club. All levels are welcome — from beginner to experienced player (we’ll teach you the rules!). Chess Club will meet in the LMC from 3:35 – 4:35 pm on the following dates: January 15th & 29th, February 12th & 26th, and March 11th. Each meeting is an independent lesson; attend as many as you can. Parent volunteers are welcome during our meetings (no Chess experience required). To sign up, email Stephanie Jennrich


Winter 2016 Activity Nights- Mark Your Calendar!

Each year, the PTA hosts grade-specific Activity Nights. We have some great acts lined up for this year. 
  • Kindergarten and First Grade: Thursday, February 18 at 7pm in the Commons
  • Second and Third Grade: Thursday, January 14 at 7pm in the Commons
  • Fourth and Fifth Grade: Friday, January 22 at 7pm in the Commons
Each child must be accompanied by a parent and only students in the specific grades can attend due to size limitations. We won't be doing an Evite this year, but will send out an email through classroom Room Reps with more details as each Activity Night approaches. Please contact Christina Perez with any questions.


PTA Volunteer Hours

Attention all PTA volunteers! Please use this form to record any volunteer hours you have logged outside of school. (Meaning not recorded in the book in the office) Due to the reduction in General PTA meetings this year, we fear we may not have an accurate account of hours logged. This form will be available on the website under Resources for future use as well. Thank you for all of your service!!
