All Libby families are invited to come by and tour the new modernized campus  at 423 West Redondo Drive on May 16, 2012 from 5:30-6:30 PM.  We will have walking tours that will begin in front of the office building, so come on by for a sneak preview of our beautiful modernized campus. 

We are excited to see the progress on the modernization of our campus at our permanent site at 423 W. Redondo Drive.  We are expected to make the move over the summer and start there next August 2012.  Please note that along with our change in address, our start times will also change.  Next school year, classes will be from 8:15 AM to 2:55 PM.  Wednesday schedule will be from 8:15 AM to 12:25 PM.  We will also be offering full day kindergarten!      

^{ST Math was created by MIND Research Institute, is a K-12 game-based software designed to boost math comprehension and proficiency through visual learning. The award-winning ST Math incorporates the latest research in neuroscience motivation, learning and game theory. Educators supplement instruction with ST Math to improve students’ comprehension and performance in math through visual learning, problem-solving and self-paced games. ST Math creates a personalized learning platform effective across multiple languages and academic levels.}

^{All students at Libby Elementary will have a chance to use the program either in their class or by visiting the computer lab.  Ask your student about Jiji the penguin and how they help Jiji move across the computer screen by answering math problems.} 

Parents interested in sending a child to a school other than his/her current school of residence may apply for a change of campus through the district’s School of Choice (SOC) option.  The Second Window for SOC begins Monday, April 2.  All SOC applications must be completed and returned no later than 3 p.m. on Thursday, June 7.    

Two forms of address verification must be attached to the application.  Please note that transportation is NOT provided for students approved for SOC.

Applications can be obtained at all OUSD school sites or the district’s Educational Support Services (ESS) office, located at 2080 Mission Ave.  All SOC applications are reviewed based on priority criteria and school capacity.  Children currently utilizing SOC and who will be attending the same school next year do not need to reapply. 

Students on Interdistrict Attendance Permits no longer need to re-apply for renewal unless the student is matriculating to middle or high school. This form can be obtained at the child’s school of residence.

Please note that Interdistrict requests must be submitted to and will only be accepted at the ESS Office.  Faxes or e-mail will not be accepted for SOC or transfer requests.  If you have any questions, please call the district at 760-966-7849.  

Beginning with the 2013-14 school year, the first day of class for all OUSD students will be Tuesday, August 20, 2013.  The slightly earlier start date is a result of a new district-wide calendar unanimously approved by the OUSD Board of Education.  The change was made during the board’s regularly scheduled meeting Tuesday, March 13, 2012. 

Other minor changes regarding the revised calendar beginning in 2013-14 include a shorter Thanksgiving Week holiday and an end to the first semester at the winter break (December 20, 2013).  The last day of instruction for students will be June 4, 2014. 

The district asks that all OUSD families please take note of these changes in order to plan accordingly for the start of school in August 2013.  For questions regarding the calendar change, please call 760-966-4008.  

Our Student Council meets weekly to work on planning fun school activities and projects that will help improve our school.  Listen for the annoucements of the next upcoming Spirit Day!  

New playground areas have been designated in order to offer more activiities for specific grade levels  for lunch and recess times.  Look for the posted signs to show where you can play. 

Super Star Mondays are great fun to help you get excited about the upcoming week.  You will hear some music in the mormings, and you may even catch a glimpse of the Libby Tiger strolling around the playground.  Remember to always do your personal best so you can be the best!
