Updates from OHE:

Student council campaigning starts next week with speeches on October 8th.

Specific information about Science Fair should be coming towards the end of next week.  There are big changes.  I have requested that science fair become a school wide event!  All students on the campus will participate.  In grades PK- 2nd, students will complete a class project.  Teachers will submit a project from their class.  3rd grade students can complete projects independently or in small groups.  All 4th and 5th graders must complete individual projects.  There will be a training session for parents on October 12th.  Be on the watch for this information next week.

The PTA reflections assignment is due October 11th.  I can't wait to read these.

The Ground Committee has created a proposal for updating the landscaping around the school.  You might see lots of orange ties around the campus.  Trees and scrubs are being trimmed and/or removed, new plants are being planted, and pavers are being laid.

Fieldtrip season has begun.  Please remember that all volunteers need to complete information prior to participating in events.  The ohepta.org website under volunteers has all the information you need to complete.
