Good Afternoon OES Families,

Thank you to everyone who came and picked up their yearbooks.  I realize that some families were not able to make it. We will have our final day to pick up yearbooks next Wednesday from 9:00am – 11:00am.  This will take place in front of the school.  Some of our PTA volunteers will be out front next to the curb, so you can stay in your car and they will bring it to you.  

This year the school partnered with the PTA so every student could receive a yearbook free of charge.  If you have paid for the yearbook, you can get a refund from the PTA, have the money applied to our next yearbook, or consider it a donation.  Please contact Tamera Bahr ([email protected])  if you would like a refund or want to apply the money for next year’s yearbook.  

Please continue checking the Alpine School District’s web page, Orem Elementary’s web page and social media outlets for updates for the upcoming school year.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.  

Have a wonderful afternoon.

Andrea Park

Good Afternoon OES Families,

We have some exciting news! Our yearbooks have arrived and we would like to get them to you. Tomorrow, Tuesday, July 21, 2020 from 9:00am-11:am families with students whose last name begins with A – M, should come to the school to pick up a yearbook. The PTA and school have partnered together so that every student will receive a yearbook.

If your child’s last name begins with N-Z you can pick up your yearbook on Wednesday, July 22, 2020 from 9:00am -11:00am.

We will have tables outside in the front of the school where you can pick these up. Please practice social distancing and wear a face mask.

As we look forward to the upcoming school year, we need to fill 5 openings in our SCC (School Community Council). Serving on the SCC is a wonderful way for parents and teachers to contribute and help improve academic performance at our school. Every public school in Utah has an SCC. The councils are made up of school employees and parents elected by parents of students attending the school. Parent members must have a student attending the school at least one of the two years of their term. For more information, please visit: https://www.schools.utah.gov/schoollandtrust

If you are interested in participating and helping our SCC, please send a short biography to me. That way, I can send out information to parents when we have our election. We will have our election in August.

As we look forward to the coming school year, please continue to check the Alpine School District website for any updates. https://alpineschools.org/returntolearn/

Alpine School District is partnering with the company, ESS to fill substitute teaching positions. If you would like to become a substitute teacher, please see the following link to the ESS website. ESS.com/alpine.

Thank you for your support and patience as we plan for the upcoming year. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
