Dear OSG Families, 

We have been enjoying the beautiful weather the past week. Unfortunately, the melting snow has left big puddles of water and mud. It is suggested that students bring an extra pair of socks and pants in their backpacks as accidental (and sometimes not so accidental) splashes and slips happen and students may come in with wet or muddy socks and pants. 

It was wonderful to see all of the pink shirts and clothing on Pink Shirt Day to support kindness. Students in each class decorated a paper heart with one way they showed or can show kindness to others. The hearts will be displayed in the school to capture this beautiful message.
