Hello OCRS families,
This is our last FULL week of school this year. The last day of school is on Monday, June 17th.
Please Let the School Know If Your Family is Moving
If your family is moving this summer (or has already moved), please call the school office at 401-231-6613 or email Mrs. Deus at mdeus@smithfield-ps.org. We want to make sure to update our records and enrollments for next year AND prepare any student files that need to be sent to another school or district.
Kona Ice for All Students on Monday, June 10th
We have arranged for Kona Ice to visit OCRS on Monday, June 10th around 10:00am to provide sweet frozen treats to all students! Please see the linked ingredients list. If any family would NOT like their child to receive Kona Ice, please let us know.
Wild West Spirit Day, Friday, June 14th
Saddle up in your best western attire (denim jacket/jeans, boots, hats, neck bandanas)!
PTA General Meeting, Monday June 10th at 6:00 PM
The OCRS PTA has a general membership meeting scheduled this upcoming Monday, June 10th at 6:00 PM in the OCRS Media Center.
We encourage parents/guardians to attend PTA meetings in-person. Like the last few meetings, Smithfield High School students will attend this meeting to supervise and play games with younger OCRS students that parents need to bring with them to the meeting. The SHS students have been a BIG hit with both younger students and families, so we encourage families to come out to the meeting in person, even if it means bringing a younger OCRS student with you.
YMCA Childcare Unavailable on June 14th and 17th
In communication with the YMCA staff we've learned that the typical YMCA before and after school care will not be available on Friday, June 14th and Monday, June 17th. The YMCA has already notified their families, but we also wanted to make sure that all families know this information. If your child typically takes the YMCA bus at dismissal every day, it's important for families to let us know what your child's dismissal routine will be on June 14th and 17th (which bus will they take or will they be a parent pick up).
