Science Fair

Thank you to everyone for making the OLPH Science Fair a success.  Thank you to the students for dedicating yourselves and working hard on your projects.  Thank you to you parents who support, assist, and buy supplies for these projects every year.  Thank you to Mrs. Perez who worked with her language arts classes on the research report.  Thank you to Mrs. Covarrubias who taught the students how to create tables and graphs.  Thank you to Mrs. Kurupas for working with the fourth graders and judging one of the older classes.  Thank you to our other judges- Mr. and Mrs. Pimentel, and Mr. Hamm from Cahuilla Desert Academy.  Thank you to Mr. Hemp  for coming to view all our water projects, and for bringing his colleague as well.  Thank you to Mrs. Arias who helps coordinate these efforts and makes it all possible!

Congratulations to all our winners!  Winners for all grades are posted in the school newsletter.  Representing our school at the Inland Science and Engineering Fair are Breanna Flores, Amanda Flores, and Matthew Rodriguez.

One last note- there are a few students who did not turn in a science fair project.  On Monday, those students will have a zero logged into the gradebook for this project and I will call those parents.  The students may bring in a project, but I will not be reminding them about this after Monday.  The last day I accept projects is February 27.

Other notes:

Students have been bringing some distracting items to school.  I have informed them that Pokemon cards are not allowed in the classroom, though they can have them outside before school, during recess/lunch, and after school.  Orbis are not allowed at all.  This is because students are carrying them around in water, which could leak all over their books and other property.  Starting Monday, if I find Orbis, I will immediately throw them away.  They were informed of this on Friday.  Thank you for your support in this.
