THANK YOU to everyone for their super generous support of our Spring Book Fair!
We would like to especially thank all of our youth volunteers.
Thank you to our students and their families who helped create decor!
Thank you to our 6th grade students who assisted as baggers during the morning rush before school started!
Thank you also to our junior high and high school alumni who were our baggers during the Spring Fling! It is awesome to be able to catch up with them and to see them willingly give their time back to OPE!

Kindergarten has been learning about plants in science.
Classes have been planting seeds and watching them grow.
