Weekly Family Update 2/09/24

Weekly Owl Update, 

We had a great week at O’Dea and we are looking forward to a fun Valentine’s Week.  Next week we are also celebrating O’Dea’s wonderful Classified Staff.  O’Dea’s office staff, custodians, kitchen staff, and classroom aides are a huge part of what makes us great. If you have a moment next week stop to thank one of these valuable O’Dea Owl Staff.

PTA is looking for some help to pour some love into O’Dea (see below)

There is a new PSD Cooking Challenge for students!  Students are invited to activate their inner chef and submit recipes of their favorite meals to O'Dea Kitchen Staff.  If your child loves to cook, this is a great event to showcase their skills.  Please see attachments for more information or email johnb@psdschools.org 2024 Flyer - English & Spanish.pdf and Recipe Submission Card_2024.docx

Spring CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) is coming up for 3rd thru 5th grade students (April).  This is an incredibly valuable assessment that informs us on student learning, instruction, and how we are doing as a school.  Please see this link for more information!
