[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP - both my kids attended OLGC K-8 and are now in high school. I still miss OLGC and its community! Such a warm, welcoming school with so many wonderful traditions. For example: currently, this weekend, is the OLGC House League Basketball tournament for the 4th and 5th graders. This league is for EVER level of player whether they have never played basketball before or whether they are already star players. My high school freshman will be working the scoreboard there as they bring back student alumni to help. It becomes like a reunion for the older kids and the younger kids attend all the games all weekend. Big excitement! It is one of so many events that brings the OLGC community together.

Academically, OLGC has served both my children so well. They had no issues transitioning to high school and are doing well there. In fact, their writing skills seem significantly beyond their high school peers. Math as well but not quite as much as with English and grammar abilities. OLGC has teachers that truly care. I know that sounds cliche' but it is the truth, and the kids certainly respond to such.
The academic environment is both challenging and also nurturing.

It is a small school so the school community is close but the school is not so small that there are not options for classes, events and activities. The school facility is lovely with a number of recent renovations.

So many years ago I attended elementary school in another state, in a very small town and I thrived in that close-knit, warm environment. I wanted the same for my kids and we definitely found it at OLGC.[/quote]
