Upcoming Events and Highlights
Welcome Back to School for the 2022-2023 School Year!!
Olson Elementary Playground Project Fundraiser
As announced by our principal Christine Barrone earlier this week during our PTO meeting, Olson Elementary’ s playground surface is getting a makeover! We will soon have a playground surface that is accessible for students of all mobilities! Plus, no more tire chips in the washing machine. This amazing remodel is being financed by MMSD's building services funds, along with our PTO, but we need your help to make our contribution.
To give to this project, make a direct donation to Olson's Playground Drive, running now through May 14th. Donations can be made via PayPal and credit card at Olson's Playground Drive, or with cash/check donations to the school office (checks made out to Olson PTO).
For every $25 you donate, you will be entered into a raffle to win one of the following: a $50 Target gift card or 50 Splash tickets.

From your PTO President
Hello Olson Otter Families!
My name is Amanda Kienbaum and I have been given the honor of PTO President beginning for the 2022-2023 school year! My girls started at Olson for the 2021-2022 school year and we quickly found our place in the friendly and inviting community. Last year, I was a Board Member - Volunteer Coordinator and assisted with many of the Olson events for Teacher Appreciation, SLASH, and 5th Grade Completion! I am super excited to take over this role this year with the support of Katie and Angie, who shared the President role for the past 3 years. We have many exciting family engagement events planned for this year, and look forward to supporting our AMAZING Olson teachers all year long!
As president, one of my goals is to get as many people involved as possible. I feel so rewarded by what I do, and I want to provide opportunities for everyone to get involved in ways that work with their lives. With more people participating and generating ideas, we can accomplish so much more.
Please let us know if you have any suggestions, concerns, thoughts or ideas.
Go Otters!
