A special Thank You to Chris Durham and Signs of Success for bringing Spartan spirit to Olympia West! We are definitely ready to start this school year and welcome back all our students and their families. If you are in the area, make sure you drive by the school and check out the windows. #spartanstrong

Happy Day
When you hear the words March Madness you typically think of basketball. At Olympia West, March Madness means the Tournament of Books. The top 16 picture books read aloud in class were matched against each other. 4th and 5th grade students would vote each week for their favorite book. Remote learning couldn’t stop these students from listening to the book being read, learning, and voting. The championship round starts tomorrow. Which book will be voted the best book- The Day the Crayons Quit or Henry’s Freedom Box?
