The After-School committee needs your help

We can not have any programs without your help.  We still need someone to head our fitness, debate, art and music clubs.  Hopefully our chess, math, and Italian clubs will be starting by next month.  We are excited that Madscience has already started.  We still need volunteers to help at carpool.  Thanks, Katy Myers

Fundraising

A GREAT BIG THANK YOU...To all those who helped make our 5k fundraising event a fun day by organizing a great Health Fair, obtaining fun prizes for everyone and overall helping the day go smooth as ice.  Make sure to give them a big kudos!

Rachel Bradshaw, Jenn Moore, Sarah Hunter, Lahoma Hollingsworth & Heidi Boden, Kathy Jardine, Amanda Pinkston, Tana Buss and Siji Abraham.

NO REST FOR THE WEARY

Volunteers needed who would like to help take charge of up coming t-shirt orders, Box Top Drives, stuffing envelopes for the Friends of Odyssey giving campaign and help organize a craft boutique for the early spring. Please call Barb Lamb or email fund@odysseycharter.net .  There's work to be done!!!!

Technology Committee  

In this world of high-speed internet, wireless everything, email, web sites, and hard drives, Odyssey would grind to a complete stop without the Technology Committee to keep us all "online" and "connected."   We are so grateful for all our "techies" who work behind the scenes, behind the wires and beneath the desk tops of our school.  They have crawled through the ceilings dragging wires, lugged computers home in the dead of night for repairs, and never once stopped for a high-5 or a round of applause.   Without these brilliant volunteers our emails would be forever lost in cyberspace, our Internet access would be unfiltered, and our phones would never ring.  We may not understand html and java, but we are all grateful that these volunteers do!  Thanks Technology Committee, and keep on surfing!

Facilities - Playground Update!

We are working on getting new Playground equipment!!! We are getting bids for adding to the existing playground equipment. Money has been allocated and we hope to have the bid process complete and installation begun by the end of September.

In the meantime, we would like to do some other work on the playground and we need your help!!! The school owns two basketball standards that need to be cemented into the ground outside on the edge of the playground blacktop. The project would likely take two days, one to dig and cement and the next day to add and install the pole and backboard.

Also, if you have painting equipment or would just be willing to help us in repainting 4-square and other things on the blacktop, please let us know. Anyone interested in helping should contact facilities@odysseycharter.net.  

This is a great way to put in some volunteer hours and also rejuvenate our playground for your kids!!
 

Family Partnership Committee

The Family Partnership Committee has 15 subcommittees and holds the distinction of being the largest of the school committees. It is also the most varied! Subcommittees range from gathering volunteer hours to overseeing the lunch program to organizing room parents. You can email the Family Partnership Committee at volunteer@odysseycharter.net
 

Interested in helping in your child's classroom?
Join the Room Parent Committee

Our goal this year is to have 2 Room Parents per classroom (1 over classroom help the other over CET help). Please help us achieve our goal. We still have teachers that are in need of Room Parents. Email roomparents@odysseycharter.net  today to sign up!
