The Olympia School District has proclaimed October 2022 as Walk to School Month. ​ Superintendent Patrick Murphy read the proclamation during the September 22 Olympia School Board meeting. Copies of the proclamation are posted in all district schools and support buildings. ​ The proclamation states in part that in October, children, families and community leaders from around the world will join together for Walk to School events “to increase awareness about the health and environmental benefits of walking and biking to school.”

Our district values your feedback! Starting today, October 3, 2022 and continuing through October 14, we encourage families to take a few moments to complete the 2022 Family Survey. ​ We are surveying OSD families, staff, and students in grades 3-12, about their experiences at school. Responses will provide invaluable insights into how we can improve and adapt our district to meet our students’ needs.

In our most recent edition of Spotlight on Success; OSD Elementary Summer School 2022 Recap, School Meal Pricing 2022-23, Avanti High School Remodel, Welcome School Leaders, Back to School Resources for Families and much more!
