Carpool Line Reminders

During regular carpool days in the morning and afternoon, every vehicle must make a loop through the auxiliary parking lot. This is the only way to keep traffic from backing up on Eden Avenue. Please also remember to pull all the way up (past the curb) before you stop to let students out or pick them up.

Valentines Needed

Valentines Due Wednesday, February 1st

Are the kiddos in need of a creative outlet? Are you a middle school student who needs service hours? Sharing & Caring Hands is collecting Valentine's to put in treat bags that go out to homeless children at Mary's Place in Minneapolis. Valentines should say "You Are Loved" or "God Love's You". They can be as simple or as elaborate as you want. Last year OLG provided over 400 cards and we are hoping to be able to deliver even more this year! Drop cards off in the red boxes at receptionist desks.
