Brought the wife along for professional development at Titan Games in Peoria Heights! Excited to learn new ways to get my 5th graders engaged!
**Phone Update**
Phone service has been restored to all buildings. A huge shout out to Olympia graduate Ryan Komnick from Frontier for investigating the issue and coming to our rescue! We hear it involved a few mice-chewed lines!
Thanks Ryan! #OlySpartanPride
Reminder: the weekend storm knocked out the phone lines at OHS, OMS, and the District Office and they are still down today; Oct. 1.
Elementary buildings are not affected. The phone company is working on fixing the issue. There is no estimate on when the issue will be resolved, but we will issue an update as soon as it is back up and running.
If you need to contact the affected buildings, please dial 309-963-4514 and use the appropriate extension for your party. Phone extensions can be found on each school's website under Links > Staff.
#DigCit
In a time of 24/7 connectivity, do the benefits of online sharing outweigh the risks? In October, our digital citizenship focus will be on the topic of Digital Footprint & Identity. Look for posts throughout the month!
Representative Tim Butler stopped by for a visit at Oly South! Our students had the opportunity to learn about his job in Springfield, ask some questions about government and share what they have been learning in school! #OlySpartanPride

Preschoolers finished their Apple unit by going apple picking. The apples all had letters and numbers on them for the students to identify and match. They loved their outdoor learning day!
