Words Of Encouragement 4/7/2020
Dear Olympic View Families and Friends,
Most of you have most likely heard from your child’s teacher. They are working diligently to connect with everyone and get set up for “distance learning.'” I know that this is a stressful time for all of us, and I just wanted to remind everyone to Put First Things First, which is Habit #3. Please be sure to return calls/emails from your child’s teacher. If you do not have their email, please email lisa.lines@cvesd.org and I will make sure to get it to you. We love and miss you all. We are here to support you!
This sums up how we, as your OV family feel…
