OPA-SV

This week is our last week of school. We have a lot of fun activities to help us close out the year.

We hope you are looking forward to the upcoming transitions in your child's academic journey. At OPA, we understand that the leap from 5th to 6th grade marks a significant milestone, and we are committed to ensuring a smooth and successful transition for our students.

We are excited to announce that we will be offering "Bridge to Middle School" program from June 17th

through July 11th, 2024, Monday through Thursday, 8:30am-12:30pm at OPA Middle School. This

program is designed to equip incoming 6th graders with the tools and knowledge they need to thrive in

middle school.

During the Bridge to Middle School program, our dedicated Middle School staff will cover essential

topics such as:

1. Middle School Expectations: We will provide insights into the academic, behavioral, and social

expectations of middle school, helping students understand what is required to succeed in this

new environment.

2. Middle School Relationships: Navigating relationships with peers and professors can be

challenging for incoming middle school students. Our program will offer guidance on building

positive relationships and effective communication skills to foster a supportive learning

community.

3. Self-Advocacy and Social Skills: Middle school success often hinges on a student's ability to

advocate for themselves and navigate social interactions confidently. Through interactive

activities and discussions, we will empower students to advocate for their needs and develop

essential social skills for success.

We believe that the Bridge to Middle School program will not only prepare incoming students

academically but also help them feel confident and empowered as they embark on this new chapter at

OPA Middle School. If you would like your child to participate, please complete this form by May 3,

2024.

We encourage all incoming 6th graders to participate in this invaluable program, as it will provide them

with a solid foundation for a successful transition to middle school.

As we approach the end of the school year, we are excited to announce our annual end-of-the-year field day celebration! This event is always a highlight for our students, filled with fun activities and memorable moments.

To ensure that this year's field day is a great success, we are kindly asking for your support through donations. Your contributions will help make this day extra special for our students and create lasting memories.

If you would like to donate, items can be dropped off at the school office during school hours. Any contribution, big or small, is greatly appreciated and will help make our field day celebration a memorable experience for all.

Thank you for your continued support and involvement in our school community. Your past contributions have been instrumental in making our events successful. Together, we can make this year's field day memorable!

In our ongoing commitment to supporting the well-being of every child in our community, we want to ensure that families feel empowered to seek assistance when needed. One way to initiate this process is by completing a request for assistance form. This form serves as a vital tool for families to communicate any concerns they may have regarding your child's behavior, emotions, or general mental health. By filling out this form, families can provide valuable insights that enable us to offer targeted support tailored to each child's unique needs. We encourage families to take advantage of this resource as we work together to foster a nurturing and supportive environment for our children to thrive.
