Report Cards for Quarter 2 Coming Home on 12/19/2025

Dear Families,

Progress Reports (report cards) will be sent home on Friday, December 19, 2025, at the end of the quarter. Teachers use a rubric to show your child’s progress toward grade-level standards throughout the year.

To help families understand the reporting process, Click the link a Parent Guide to Understanding Progress Reports . We hope these updates make it easier to follow your child’s academic growth.

If you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s teacher. Thank you for partnering with us to support your child’s learning!

Dec. 22 – Jan. 12 – Winter Break

Tues. Jan. 13 – Quarter 3 resumes – Minimum Day

Every Minute Counts!

Did you know that being just 5 minutes late each day can add up to a significant loss of learning time over the course of the school year? Every minute matters—especially in the morning when routines are set and learning begins.

Please take a moment to talk with your child about the importance of arriving at school on time every day. Building strong habits now sets the tone for a successful day and a successful year!

You can make check in at the front office Quick and Easy!!!!

Download the app a create an account!

LEAD Quarter 3 Clubs acceptance emails will start delivering on Monday; we have some popular clubs with a big waitlist, if you don’t receive a confirmation email by 6:00 pm Monday, please consider registering to other clubs.

📚✨ Books That Travel Farther Than We Imagined! ✨📚
Olympic View Elementary’s Book Collection Service Project has reached even farther than we ever dreamed — all the way to the earthquake victims in Cebu, Philippines.
Through the heartfelt collaboration of UNIFFIED Inglewood Chapter and the Page-Turner Club, the donated books from our Olympic View community were hand-delivered along with much-needed relief goods to families and children affected by the recent disaster.
💙 A huge thank you to Olympic View Elementary for your generosity and compassion. Your books are bringing not just stories, but hope and healing across the ocean.
Thank you Ms. Oca for leading the service project!!!!!!!
