🌬️ A quick weather update as we head into the weekend!
👟 Athletics and activities planned for Friday evening will continue as scheduled. Out of an abundance of caution due to anticipated weather conditions, all activities and facility rentals scheduled for Saturday and Sunday have been canceled. At this time, no decision has been made regarding school on Monday. We will continue to carefully monitor weather conditions throughout the weekend.
📢 FAMILIES - as a reminder, if you do not receive a phone call, text, or email by 5:00 a.m., school will be in session. Please ensure your contact information in ParentVUE is up to date, so you receive direct notifications. #OPSGrowHere
🍎 At Olathe Public Schools, we believe Their Future is Our Future - and that our students’ future starts now. On March 3, 2026, registered voters who live within Olathe Public Schools boundaries can vote in a No-Tax Rate Increase $389 million bond election. This bond will let us expand learning opportunities, improve physical spaces, enhance security, and continue to make it possible for all students to learn and prepare for the future that awaits them.

🍎 It's American Education Week, and we're showcasing our district theme of "Opportunity Grows Here". Opportunity doesn't just happen. It's grown intentionally with care. We’re proud to offer students a wide range of experiences that help them discover their passions, strengthen their skills, and prepare for the future.
🌱 As we continue to celebrate this week, we'll be highlighting a few other things that grow here: dedication, teamwork, community, possibilities, potential, and professionalism. #OPSGrowHere
