We are so grateful for our Olander parent community. Parents are involved in many aspects of the school, including numerous volunteer activities. We are extremely fortunate to have so many caring, generous families that support their children and Olander in so many ways. We hope every new parent feels welcome and that each current parent is excited to be part of our school. We look forward to working with you this year to co-create an incredibly positive educational experience for your child!

Medications at School
All medication given at school, whether doctor prescribed or over-the-counter, must be accompanied by the PSD Medication Authorization and Release form, available in the Olander office, signed by both the parent/guardian and the physician. Medication must be provided and brought to school in the original prescription bottle or over-the-counter container. Pharmacists may provide you with two bottles if you ask them to label one for school use. If medication changes or medication is discontinued during the school year, please have the child’s doctor fax us the new or correct orders. Contact Stephanie Garner at 970-488-8410 for more information.
