OLR students and staff members celebrated World Autism Day On Wednesday, April 2nd by wearing Blue. Our inspiring slogan was “Light It Up Blue.” One highlight was Ms. S. Guida and Ms. S. Marinelli’s students enjoying a 1 kilometre walk with other homeroom classes walking as as well with their teachers.
Thank you to Educational Assistant, Ms. P. Scozzari for making such a beautiful display out in the hallway for all to behold.
Congratulations to all of OLR’s Virtue of the Month Award recipients for the month of March 2025. The virtue is Perseverance, and these students sure did demonstrate a great deal of patience, stuck to their goals and put their trust in God’s plan for them! April’s virtue is “Reverence.”
Congratulations are also in order for Mr. J. Federici’s OLR Cup winners for basketball.From left to right: Mark B, Seth P, Bernard S, Matthew T, Kyler M, Raven D, Jayna S, Abigail C.
