December 7, 2023


Dear Parents,


We are blessed to have received funds from the State this year that allowed us to purchase new student desks, tables, and chairs for all classrooms, preschool to 8th grade. The new desks and chairs for grades 1 - 8 are now assembled and in place, thanks to the help of several dads. Grandparents and VIPs will have a chance to see the new furniture on Tuesday. We also have new lunch tables and library furnishings. Do stop by after school when you can to check out our ultra-modern look!


Santa’s Secret Shop returns to OLC next week on Tues, Wed, and Thurs.. The shop is a great learning experience for young people: planning gift items, budgeting, counting money, making change, etc. The shop hours will be sent to you next week.


Early bird registration for the 2024-2025 school year will be from February 12 until March 15, 2024. The early bird registration fee is $220. After March 15, the rate will be $440. The FACTS (financial assistance) Grant and Aid Application will open February 12.
