Thanks for reminding your children to return books promptly. We do not allow students to take out new books if any other books are outstanding.
BOOK IT!: Olivet is cooperating with Pizza Hut in its Book It! program this year. Our goal for students in each grade level is ten books per month. Starting in October and running through March, every student who reaches the goal for the month will receive a coupon redeemable for a free personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut. Students may either eat in the restaurant or "take out" their pizza, so no additional purchase is required. Students who reach the goal for all six months receive a medallion at the end of the program. Forms are available in the Media Center. Read more about this program at the Pizza Hut website.
OLIVET BOOK REPORT PROGRAM: Students may also participate in an optional book report program. Any student who completes twenty grade-appropriate book report forms during the school year will be honored in June as an "Olivet Book Reporter." (First graders are only required to complete fifteen reports.) Students will receive a certificate and will be featured in a display in the Media Center. Levelled forms are available in a display rack in the Media Center.
