School News

Speed Stacking unit was a success again this year. The students loved it and had a great time setting personal records, goal setting and working on their bilateral efficiency. Here is an amazon link to purchase cups if your child has interest in speed stacking at home and a link to the website if you want to learn more speed stacking!! Ask your student about their favorite stack pattern.

Rolling Into the End of the Year

The PTO is so excited about everything we’re doing this spring! You’ll hear more in the coming weeks about Staff Appreciation Week, Carnival and Field Day, but you might not hear about some of the other things we’re doing. Our 2025-2026 budget included roller skate rental for the recent physical education unit, funding for coach buses for the upcoming fourth grade field trip to the Capitol, and an amount for the fifth grade celebration. These are just some examples of the impact you’re making when you join the PTO, donate to your student for the Fun Run, or bid on a silent auction item!

If you’d like to learn more about the PTO, please email olspto@gmail.com and/or join us for our meeting in May!

What doesn’t the PTO do?
We don’t pressure. There’s never a commitment—you don’t have to volunteer or donate.

Does your Company participate in a United Way giving campaign?

Are you participating in the United Way community campaign? Did you know you can designate your donated funds to different organizations?

Consider allocating a portion of your donation to the Oriole Lane PTO through the Mequon-Thiensville Area Council Parent Teacher Organization! After you have finalized your donation, please  let olspto@gmail.com know so we can ensure it is properly distributed to the Oriole Lane PTO from the District’s Area Council.
