Good day. This is Dr. Wheeler, your Olds Elementary Principal with a few short announcements and updates.
First Week: We, the staff at Olds, have been so impressed with our students this year. They are following school rules and working diligently in classrooms. It has been a very positive start to the school year.
Flex Math: We are starting flex math for students. Part of this approach is the Single Subject Acceleration Program for Math that is designed by WCPSS. The other part of our school approach is the mastery learning model. We use mastery learning within grade levels to provide students with enrichment, initial teaching, and reteaching experiences that will help all of our students grow their mathematical skills. More information on these approaches will be coming home by your homeroom teachers and Ms. Salisbury, our AG teacher.
Church Parking: Forest Hills Baptist Church has a funeral on Thursday, August 27th. Please do not park near the building if you are using their parking lot. Do not park in front of the building or beside it. Please park in the lot as far from the building as possible. Thank you.
Website: Our website will be turning over soon. It will be under construction for a week once the work begins. Please be patient with us when that begins.
Summer Bridges: If your child worked on a Summer Bridges book over the summer break and wants to be a part of the recognition program, please have him or her bring the book to the office. We will be having a drawing soon in recognition of quality work.
This message will be posted on our school website under Administrators’ Notes.
