Spring is a busy time for our 8th graders. It's time to gear up for high school registration, incoming freshmen parent/guardian nights at Mariner High School and Kamiak High School in addition to our 8th grade ceremony and celebration to end the year. Below are some of these important dates:

The 8th grade ceremony is not considered a “graduation" ceremony. Graduation is reserved for high school seniors. All 8th grade students are recognized at the event by name in addition to some students earning special department awards and memorial awards. (We will notify families of students receiving these awards ahead of time.) Leave the balloons at home. They block the view of others. We will not allow any balloons in the bleachers or standing-room area.

Our 8th graders should wear "dressy casual" to the 6pm ceremony. School dress code rules apply for both the ceremony & celebration. Students should bring a change of casual clothes for the student-only celebration from 7-9pm. Students can quickly change their clothes after the ceremony and give back their dress clothes to parents before leaving. 

HELP NEEDED--8TH GRADE CELEBRATION PLANNING! Parents/guardians are needed to help plan and run the free celebration for 8th graders from 7-9pm on June 16th. Shout out to Amberley Snyder and Hannah Blomberg for volunteering to be our co-chairs of this event. Want to help? The first planning meeting is on Monday, March 23rd at 7pm in the OV library. Show up to help pick a theme and sign up to serve on a committee (food, decorations, program, games). This event is entirely parent-run, so lots of helpers are needed! SIGN UP HERE to be added to the group.  

Heads up to our current 6th and 7th graders. Our counselors will be helping students register for next year's classes. They will be visiting science classrooms on the following dates:

Families--please ask your student to see their registration paperwork (on these days) to see what classes are offered next year. Students will mark their choices in Qmlativ but will bring registration paper home as a worksheet so families can be informed as well. (Sorry--our district's course catalog for the 2026-2027 is not available at this time. Stay tuned!)

Do you have a 5th grader heading to Olympic View this fall? You are invited to attend our Fifth Grade Family Night on Tuesday, March 24th from 6-7pm. Bring your 5th grader (no siblings, please) and learn about classes, clubs and athletics. Meet the principal, teachers and your student's counselor. Take a self-guided tour of our campus. Join a Q & A session with current 6th graders in the library. See attached flyer for more details!

LEARNING LABS is open after school from 2:45-4pm in C143 (PE Health classroom) on Mondays through Thursdays.

ELECT TO LEARN is open after school from 2:45-4pm in A214 on Mondays through Thursdays.

Both of these options are quiet study places to get help with homework or to read a book. No cell phones or computer gaming is allowed.

ACTIVITY BUS: Students attending these supervised activities can ride the activity bus home as long as they live in our bus boundaries. CLICK HERE for the bus stops and estimated time of drop-off.

Games do not begin until 3:45. Students are not supervised after school. They must leave campus, attend an afterschool club or go directly to the gym until the game starts.

Once students enter the gym, they must remain in the gym until a ride home arrives or the game is over. No in and out.

Students may come into the gym at 2:50 but must remain there until a ride home arrives or the game is over.

Students should remain in the bleachers before and during the game unless they are using the restroom.

No food or gum is allowed in the gym and only water to drink.

Rides home must be arranged before attending the game or students must catch the 4pm activity bus.

Wear all the glow-in-the dark clothes you have! One glow-in-the-dark necklace is provided per student. Pizza and snacks provided from 8:40-9pm in the party room. Food can only be consumed in the party room. Students must sign the Pump It up Waiver to participate.
