Oden 3rd-5th grade enjoyed having their grandparents at school for some family time, games and refreshments. Thank you to all the grandparents that came and made school special for your student. Grandparents are treasures! ❤️🌟👵🏻👨🏻🦳
Friendly Reminder: Tomorrow is our Grandparents' Day Drive-Thru Donut Breakfast. All forms were due back this morning.
We do want to clarify a few things:
-This is drive-thru only. We can not allow adults into our building. (I'm sure you all understand the reasons.)
-Students will be delivering donuts to the car window for a quick "Love you grandma & grandpa"
-Drive-up is in front of the elementary.
-Grandparents do not have to pay for donuts.
-This is for AES grades Kindergarten-6th.
We can't wait to see all the grandparents in the morning!
