OCS/Charlotte Community Library School Card Opportunity!
Olivet Community Schools is excited to partner with the Charlotte Community Library to give students easier access to books, learning tools, and valuable online resources!
Through the OCS School Card Program, students can enjoy benefits such as:
📖 eBooks & Audiobooks through Libby
🌎 Language Learning with Mango Languages
📚 Access to Physical Library Materials
✨ And so much more!
This partnership is designed to make it easier for students to access resources that support literacy, learning, and academic success—without families having to complete additional paperwork to get started.
Parents and guardians: Please check your email for important information about the School Card Program and an opt-out form. The opt-out form only needs to be returned if you do not want your student’s information (Name and Student ID Number only) shared with the library for the purpose of creating a library card. Opt Out Forms must be returned by September 18th.
Together, we’re helping connect our students with even more opportunities to read, learn, explore, and succeed! 💚
We are excited to welcome several new teachers and staff members to the Olivet Community Schools family!
Get to know each of our newest Eagles by checking out their individual staff spotlights below.
Please join us in giving a warm Olivet welcome to our newest team members! We’re so glad you’re here!

As we begin the new school year, we want to remind all families that Olivet Community Schools’ updated Wireless Communication Devices Policy is in effect immediately.
For our students, this means personal wireless communication devices should not be accessed or used during the school day. This includes:
📱 Cell phones
⌚ Smart watches
👓 Smart/AI glasses
📲 Other personal wireless communication devices
Our goal is simple: to create a safe, engaging, and distraction-free learning environment where students can focus on learning, building relationships, and being present throughout their school day.
We appreciate our families taking a few minutes to review these expectations with their students before arriving at school tomorrow. Your partnership and support help us start the year with clear and consistent expectations for everyone.
💚🦅 Thank you for helping our Eagles SOAR into a great school year!

OCS Families - Did you receive our test text message?
Olivet Community Schools recently sent a test message through our emergency notification system. If you did not receive the text, please contact your child’s school office and speak with the building secretary to make sure your contact information is up to date.
Keeping your information current helps ensure you receive important notifications about snow days, school closures, schedule changes, and other emergencies.
Thank you for helping us stay connected! 💚
We're so excited to kick off your senior year together! There's something truly special about watching the sunrise with your classmates, and we'd love to have as many of you there as possible. We hope to see you there!
As we prepare for the new school year, we are making a few changes to student parking at Olivet High School. These changes are designed to improve student safety and building security.
🚗 STUDENT PARKING
Beginning this year, all student drivers will park on the auditorium side of the building. Please review the document below for student parking areas.
This change is being made after concerns last year involving building access on the gym/B-Wing side and traffic involving student drivers during 4th & 5th grade afternoon pick-up.
We know that changes to parking and traffic patterns can take a little time to become routine. Thank you for helping us create a safer and more efficient arrival and dismissal process for everyone.
Please review the attached parking and drop-off map before the first day of school.

📚 Library Access at OMS📚
🦅 As we prepare to welcome students back, we wanted to provide a quick clarification regarding library access for our students in grades 4 through 8.
🦅 Our students will continue to have access to the OMS library and physical books throughout the school year. Just as in previous years, library access will be incorporated into students’ ELA blocks. Technology classes are an important part of our students’ learning experience, but they are not replacing access to our library or physical books.
🦅 We know how important it is for students to have opportunities to browse the shelves, discover new authors and genres, find books they love, and simply enjoy reading.
🦅 We are excited to continue fostering a love of reading at OMS and can’t wait to see our Eagles back in the library this year!
📱A new Michigan law requires all school districts to adopt and enforce policies restricting student use of wireless communication devices at school. As we prepare for the new school year, we want to make sure our families understand what this means for our Olivet Eagles.
🦅 Please take a moment to review the graphic for the expectations that will be in place across OCS. Thank you for partnering with us as we work to keep students focused, engaged, and ready to learn!
Less distraction. More engagement. Stronger outcomes.
