Prom Talks

Assistant Principal Mrs. Jennifer Noteboom prepared a video called "Prom Talks" sharing all of the information students need to know about this Saturday.  Please review the video and have a crucial  conversation about the choices the kids make.  It is invaluable that students know that this is a school sponsored event and any choices they make could impact the final weeks of school.  We would not want to suspend any athletes or activity members from participating in the end of the year events, and we certainly do not want to not allow seniors to walk at graduation.  Ultimately safety of our students on this exciting evening is everyone's priority.

Words cannot explain how I feel about this school, this community, and these kids at Olathe North.  today.  What a great day to be an Eagle as the ON Wish Club was able to grant Will his wish to swim with sea turtles.   I will update the links to the news stories below as it is celebrated across the metro.  S/O to Ms,. Harris, Maddie Hughes, Alex Schroeder, and the entire ON Wish club as today was a homerun for our school and community.

I hope this website is an easier way to communicate with Olathe North Stakeholders.  As this site continues to grow I will be adding the Counseling Corner, Notes from the Athletic Director and any other information that was formerly shared in the bi-weekly newsletter. Please comment below or send me an email and share your thoughts on the blog. jhermanon@olatheschools.org

I will be posting individual blogs on the following topics over the next week. 
1. Power 50 Schedule: This will be the new bell schedule for all five high schools next year. This will give an opportunity for student's to see their teachers daily if needed.
2. Detailed information  about the 2017 Olathe North Graduation. 
3. Olathe North Summer School Information: Recovery Credit Opportunities.
4. Eagle Extras: What your student needs to do?
5. Information on the Olathe North Social Justice Council. 

I hope everyone has a great weekend.  Only 5 weeks to go before we hit summer.  It is absolutely amazing how quick this year has went.  Keep checking parentvue and studentvue https://parentvue.olatheschools.com/ and keep challenging the kids to give us their best effort over these last few weeks.  Check some of the other pages on this site to see cool things the kids and staff are doing at ON.

Dear Olathe North Families,
 
In an attempt to step up better communication to Olathe North families I am creating this blog in lieu of the bi-weekly newsletter.  The convenience of continuing to update and archive all announcements, celebrations, and imperative information in one location will make it easier for anyone to find.  Now ON families will not have to sift through emails to open the attachment to find my newsletter.  As I build this site you will be able to work through the menu in the top left to find specific pages you are personally interested in.  I will continue to celebrate students and staff , make important announcements and updates,  and share fundraising opportunities for our ON groups. On the left you can find archived information and select what blog you are interested in reading.  I am always looking to communicate and celebrate better with our community.  Please feel free to send me an email with any and all suggestions to better communicate.
  
The Olathe North staff will work hard to uphold the mission of our school, “While celebrating diversity, our mission is to develop adaptive, responsible citizens through relationships, rigor, relevance and resilience.” We live by simple words, “You’re in high school once, but you’re an Eagle Forever!”  Let’s have a great year.
 
 
 
 
 
 

Jason Herman
