ODLE PTSA Support
The Woodridge PTSA has responded to Odle Middle School PTSA’s recent needs with a $500 donation this week. After the tragic loss of one of their students’ lives to suicide, the Odle PTSA has been supporting its school with meals for counselors and teachers, as well as helping to fill the “snack pantry.” As their budget for this has dwindled, Odle PTSA has welcomed support from the greater community. We donated from our humanitarian line item, and will continue to stay in touch with our PTSA peers as their needs evolve and assist in ways that are appropriate.
We do this as a show of support during a difficult time for Odle, it’s team of educators/counselors, their families, and the student's family. We know this recent event weighs heavy on the hearts of many of us in the Bellevue school community.
Individuals also seeking to show additional support can do so through these options:
- Financial Donation: Visit MemberHub; in the required fields asking for “student name” you can enter “none”
- Staff Lounge Snacks: There are donation bins outside Odle, 502 143rd Ave NE, for non-perishable food/beverage donations (due to covid they have to be individual serving size and wrapped items like granola bars or multipacks of individually wrapped snacks).
Covid Testing at Woodridge
Just a reminder that COVID-19 screening and diagnostic testing will be starting the week of November 8th at our BSD Schools. Don't forget to complete the CONSENT FORM to opt-in or opt-out of testing.
