Our first-ever Book eFair is happening! From now through November 26th, you can shop online for your home library while contributing to the school and classroom libraries here at Olympic View Middle School. After you browse and shop online, the books ship to our school for free when the online book fair ends. It’s so easy! 

For every dollar our Book eFair earns, our school receives 20% back as a credit we can use to purchase books to add to our school library. Families can also buy books from a teacher’s wish list for libraries in the classrooms. To browse titles and purchase books, visit book-efairs.follettcontent.com and enter OV’s Book eFair Code: ZGDL3

Shout out to Jim Tinsley for being here almost every morning volunteering his time as a dedicated CHAMPS leader. He helps supervise the courtyard and cafeteria when he is here. We also appreciate our other CHAMPS volunteer, Sam Herbst, for volunteering every Friday morning. Thanks, Jim & Sam! We really appreciate your dedication and support.

A big thank you to the Packs for Kids Alliance for donating food bags to all schools in the Mukilteo School District. Shout out to our OV parents, Courtney Lee & Jim Tinsley, for serving on the alliance and donating their time and money to make sure Mukilteo School District students have food for the weekend. We are grateful for your efforts and for your hearts for kids!
