On Friday May 4th OLC Students "Stood for Change" 
Against Bullying 2012
We joined millions of students and teachers across North America to "Stand 4 Change" to demonstrate our commitment to putting an end to bullying. On May 4, 2012 at 12:00 p.m. EST, that image became a reality as we all stopped, stood and let the world know that we will no longer tolerate bullying in our schools and our communities.
Our participation in this continent-wide community action showed people across the globe that it is not only okay to stand up to bullying, it is the right thing to do. Together, we can improve the lives of millions of young people, and help to save lives in the process.
OLC Students Take the Prize!
Congratulations to students in both our 4th and 6th grades for winning contests this week! Our 6th grade students, Milena, Fernando, Ben and Subhan represented our school yesterday in the Marist High School math competition. Out of 15 schools, our students earned first place. We are very proud of them!
In addition, our 4th grade students Xin Wei and Patricia won prizes in the Hudson County Poster Contest. The students were chosen from over 200 entries county-wide. Patricia won Third Place for her Food Pyramid poster and XinWei won fourth place for her Exercise and Healthy Food poster. Great job girls!
We strive to develop the fullest expression of a child's potential and giftedness, encouraging each to become a lifelong learner and to work with others to create a more just and peaceful world. Our hope is to prepare each child to meet the challenges of life and to respond to the needs of the global community.
