Dear Parents,
I can’t believe we are already into the month of October! What happened to September? Our year is quickly progressing and we are on the downward side of first term. Please take note the quarter ends on October 26th and that will be an early out day, with school dismissed at 12:15 PM. This allows the teachers the afternoon to get their grades finalized and entered. Our teachers will be involved in a professional development training on Friday the 27th.
This month we get to celebrate and appreciate people in and out of our building that make an impact in the lives of our students. Last week we appreciated our custodians, Les, Angie, Melinda and all of our part-timers. They keep our building functioning and looking fantastic each day. This week, October 9th through 13th, we are appreciating our lunch ladies Teena, Angie, Becky, Brooke, Carla, Evelyn, Gail, Leticia, and Nicole. They do a great job making sure our students eat well. October 16th through the 20th is Bus Driver appreciation week. We have 15 bus drivers who make sure our kids get to and from school safely each day. October is a great month!

We want to congratulate our softball team as they are having a great season. We wish them Good Luck as we head into the tournament. We are also proud of our football team as they are improving each week and have 2 wins so far.
Please continue to monitor student grades on the portal and be cognizant of deficient lunch account balances. We appreciate you making sure there is always money in your student's lunch account.
Slow down when you are bringing our students to school and when leaving our campus. As the mornings are dark, take extra caution and watch for students darting across the street and parking lots. Also remind students to wear warm clothes as the temperature drops.
Thank you for your support and please contact me when you have questions or concerns. Orion is the best school in the district and your input helps keep us above the rest. Enjoy the beautiful fall colors, the crisp air and have a Happy Halloween!
Ms. Earnest
