Family Weekly Owl Update April 25

We had a wonderful week at O’Dea. The highlight was the O’Dea Spring Musical Performance—Aristocrats—at Fort Collins High School on Tuesday. Mrs. McLaren facilitated a student-designed production, which O’Dea students oversaw, producing, acting, and directing! It was great to see everyone on Tuesday for an epic performance 😊.   

Teacher Appreciation Week is coming up May 5th-10th.  We take this whole week to celebrate each educator at O’Dea.  O’Dea PTA has worked hard to have fun and special events for staff each day that week!  We seek parent help with a Taco Bar on Tuesday, May 6th!  If you can, we would love your help in celebrating the excellent O’Dea Staff – sign up here https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0D49ABAA2FA5FB6-56460510-teacher
