Is your child a creative problem solver? Do they enjoy working on a team? Building costumes and performing skits? Then join us on a Sharon OM Team! Sharon Elementary is excited to begin Odyssey of the Mind (OM) this year, and we want you to be a part of it!  We are in need of student participants, as well as volunteer coaches.  It is open to students of all grade levels K–5.

If you are interested in being a part of OM, we will hold an informational meeting on Wednesday, September 20th at 4:00 PM in Ms. Case’s room. If your children want to join OM, please attend if possible. Attached is an application form with a list of the 2017–2018 Long-Term Problems. If you are unable to attend, or have questions regarding Odyssey of the Mind, please contact Jennifer Capps at jennifers.capps@cms.k12.nc.us.

This form allows you to combine your payment for all the items available from the PTA as well as submit your school directory information.

In support of privacy practices, any family wanting their student name(s) and/or information to appear in the directory must provide their information and opt in each year.

Volunteers are needed for 1-month sessions to help K, 1st, and 2nd graders read great stories and develop their critical thinking skills. Volunteers will teach one, 1-hour lesson per week for one month to a group of six children. All curriculum and materials will be provided.

Training for potential volunteers will be held Monday, September 18th at 8 am in the Media Center.

Please email juniorgreatbooks@sharonschoolpta.org to volunteer or learn more.

Can you help first graders learn to read? PALS is a program that helps kids who need a little extra boost. An hour of your time per week can make a huge difference!

Come join us September 19th at 11 AM in the Media Center to learn about the program and a brief training session.
