Thank You Corner

Thank you Kim Lindberg and Lonnie Sommer for organizing such an amazing PTA Plant Sale this year.  A big thank you to all of the volunteers who helped in the cold weather and rain to receive, sort, and load the plants into your cars. The flowers looked beautiful. Happy Spring!
The PTA program First Aid For Little People was offered earlier this month to First and Second graders during the school day. Thank you Chris Bialko and Katie Zabor for all of your efforts chairing this committee. We appreciate the help of all the volunteer parents who helped deliver the program.  


World of Work Comes to OMS Spring 2018

So excited to announce that "World of Work" comes to Olive-Mary Stitt next Spring 2018. The purpose of "World of Work" program is to provide the 5th grade students an opportunity for a “real world” work experience. This program would afford the 5th grade children to see the value of hard work in different business settings. It would also allow them a window into the many steps involved in career aspirations. We will partner with local businesses and companies for the children to job shadow a few hours. Children will learn about career paths, job requirements, education and the importance of goals. The program will include a introduction to resume writing, beginner interviewing skills and a brown bag business lunch. This program must have enough chaperones to take flight, consider volunteering for "World of Work" PTA Program spring 2018.
