Everyone attending Olympic View Elementary on a CVESD Zone Transfer will receive an email in the last week of January with a specific link to renew the Zone Transfer for their child for the 2023-2024 school year. Please complete this Zone Transfer (or ZT) process ASAP to keep your child at our school, or families risk losing their child’s spot at our school if a new family moves into the neighborhood. Please also remember that a Zone Transfer or Intradistrict Transfer may be denied if a child’s behavior or attendance needs improvement.

Dear Golden Eagle Adults. I think we can agree that our children’s safety is our top priority. Please make sure your driving and your action in and around the school reflect that. If one of our students is injured because someone is in a hurry, parks in the middle of the street, drives through the parking lot and surrounding area on a cell phone, it would be devastating. Here are some items that I have discussed with CVPD that they will be on the lookout:
Cars making U-Turns in and near the crosswalk
Drivers speeding through the school zone and parking lot
Drivers on their cell phones
Drivers turning their hazards on and leaving their car unattended in the street
Parents parking in the read zones
PLEASE be polite and patient. We have a small parking lot and not much space. If you would like to volunteer to help in the parking lot/crosswalks, please email lisa.lines@cvesd.org
Thank you to our ELAC and OPTC parent volunteers who made out Valentine’s Dance a success!
Tuesday, Feb. 7 – DAC/DELAC Meeting at 12pm at ESSC CLICK HERE for agenda
Dear Families – Our Kids Heart Challenge is coming to an end on Tuesday, and our students have done an amazing job learning how to keep their hearts healthy while helping others! This is the last chance to help us reach our goal of having 100% of families learn Hands-Only CPR by completing Finn’s Mission. Join our team today at http://www2.heart.org/goto/OlympicView or on the FREE Kids Heart Challenge App for Apple or Android and follow Finn’s Mission in your headquarters!
YOU can make a difference! Each year, about 75% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur at home. Survival depends on immediate CPR from someone nearby. You can help save lives by learning Hands-Only CPR through Finn’s Missions!

The Y supports families throughout the county. The Y relies on charitable giving to create scholarships for students and families in need! The Y is pivotal in our community in supporting the needs in various ways of our students and families.

CLICK HERE to visit the Eastlake Educational Foundation Website
You don’t need to look far to understand why Eastlake is a special place – it’s the people! Even though we have grown, we are still a small town at heart because of the support and care shown to each other, and the value we place on public education.
A community-wide effort The Come Together Community Campaign is underway to raise money for neighborhood public schools to fund technology hardware (computers, devices) educational software (to teach core subjects and advance learning through online platforms), fund professional development (so teachers can advance their skills) and provide STEAM programs (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math). Additionally, your support helps continue new programs like: Eastlake+, A Positive Podcast, Scholarships, Eastlake Alumni & Friends, Teacher Mini Grants, student internships, and numerous school programs.
Will you help us support our public schools by making a donation in any amount? We will ensure that 100% of your donation goes directly to our neighborhood public schools and is fully tax deductible. Your donation will make a meaningful impact for programs that help all our kids.
We know there are many worthy causes to support this year, and we hope that you will consider including the Come Together Community Campaign in your giving plans. Take a look at our most recent annual report for more information.
