ESF Fund Run – Sunday May 20 Sunday, May 20th is right around the corner which means it is time for the 4th Annual ESF Fund Run! We have added a 10k run NEW this year, and more FREE games and crafts to the Expo. This is sure to be a great event for the entire family. Olympus students participating in the Fund Run will receive credit for a run in their PE class (check with the PE teacher for specific details). We encourage our students to wear their Spartan Colors for the race! Volunteers Needed! We are desperate! The 4th Annual Fund Run is set for this Sunday and we are seriously low on volunteers. If you've already registered to run, walk, sponsor or volunteer - THANK YOU! If not, now's your last chance. WE NEED: Volunteers - It's just a 2-hour shift! Whatever is holding you back - too early, too hot, don't like kids? - I can fix it. We need (7) more people to man the kids' crafts and games in the Expo 7:30 - 9:30am. We need (5) more people to man the kids' crafts and games in the Expo 9:30 - 11:30am. We need (11) more people to work on the course 8 - 10am and just make sure no one gets run over by a car. While you're there, you can cheer on the runners and keep them going in the right direction. It's easy, fun and, trust me, can be done in pj's with coffee in hand. IF YOU ARE WILLING TO VOLUNTEER, please email Britt Redfield at (britt.s.redfield@bankofamerica.com) Annual EUSD Parent Survey The Eureka Union School District invites you to participate in our Annual District Parent Survey.

It is a great opportunity for parents to get to know the “nuts and bolts” of how Granite Bay High School operates. Donate Old Sports Equipment for Student Project Students from Ms. Parmesano’s 8th Grade Core class will be collecting gently used sports equipment from May 21st to May 31st.

Thank you for your consideration. – Ms. Parmesano’s Core Students TOPSoccer The national US Youth Soccer organization is teaming up with the Placer Youth Soccer League and its clubs to bring a unique soccer program to this region. The program, called TOPSoccer, is designed to meet the needs of children with physical and/or other special needs. It targets those kids ages 4-18 who would like to play soccer, but are challenged by the traditional soccer environment, including those kids with physical supports and wheelchairs. TOPSoccer is a community-based, outreach soccer program that is run by local volunteers. Player participation and development are key elements of the program, as players are placed on teams according to ability and NOT by age. The program is designed to provide a fun and meaningful experience for the family, while also improving the overall fitness, self-esteem and social skills of the child athlete in a safe and caring environment. The program will also provide parents the opportunity to network with other families for support and information sharing. There will be a free TOPSoccer play date on May 19th at the Douglas Ranch Park in Granite Bay. This will provide an opportunity for local families to experience and become familiar with the program and meet the coaches and other volunteers. TOPSoccer is also seeking adult and teenage volunteers to serve as coaches and player buddies. To see a TOPSoccer video, click here. A parent flyer and registration forms for the event on the 19th are available on the Placer TOPSoccer website: http://www.eteamz.com/pysltopsoccer/files/TopSoccerFlier.pdf http://www.eteamz.com/pysltopsoccer/handouts/ For more information regarding TOPSoccer, please contact: Larry Langham, Placer Youth Soccer League 916-761 - 9293 Olympus Newspaper – The Spartan Chronicles Check out the latest edition of the Spartan Chronicles at http://my.hsj.org/ca/roseville/olympus Study Hall and Math Lab · Study Hall- o Monday is from 2:00 – 3:00 (due to the Collaboration schedule).
