Welcome to Odyssey at the Libby Center! Another summer vacation is coming to a close, and I hope it has been a pleasant one for you. It’s been my honor and privilege to serve the Libby school community; I am looking forward to my third year here as principal. We in the office at Libby have been busy this summer, and are looking forward to having teachers and students back in the building.
New Student Orientation will be on Tuesday, August 23. Students should report to the Libby gymnasium at 10:30 AM. The orientation should be finished by 11:45. While this is not mandatory, we certainly hope that students who are able to attend, do attend.
Once again the transportation/bus routes have been adjusted to better meet our students’ needs. Some of the bus routes are exactly the same, and some new routes have been added. If you have any questions about transportation, please call Rhonda McLellan/Transportation at 354-7388. I’ve included the transportation registration form for your convenience. A transportation form must be submitted for each student who intends to ride the bus to/from Libby.
School supplies: Just as in the last few years, Spokane Public Schools will provide K-6 students with basic classroom supplies such as pencils, glue, crayons, scissors, markers and tissue. Other supplies are listed by grade level on our Libby webpage.
All students must bring gym shoes for fitness and health, along with a backpack with the child’s name clearly printed inside.
Our Back to School Night will be September 14 at 5:00 PM. Please join us for fun and lots of information.
The First Day of School is Tuesday, August 30. School starts at 8:00 AM and we dismiss at 2:30 PM.
