The Columbia Theatre Family Matinee Program is back! The first movie begins on January 27th. Parents your student will have a flyer with them on either Monday or Tuesday this week. If you are interested have them return the form to the front office at OPE with money, or you can come in during office hours Monday thru Friday 8-4.

The cost is $10.00 for all 5 movies and the valuable coupons. Each movie coupon is good for 1 child and 1 adult (18 and over, Children from 3 years to 17 need their own ticket). If 1 child and 1 adult come to all 5 movies that is $1 per person per movie. They will also have deals on concessions.

Students should bring the flyer back to OPE filled out with a check for the amount of tickets they would like to purchase. They will then receive movie tickets. The first movie is this weekend January 27th. Below in this email is a list of the movies offered and when they will be playing.

This is a fundraiser for OPPO, 3 dollars of each ticket will go to the OPPO general budget to help with field trips, playground equipment, and much more!

Natalie Howard was our only OPE 6th grader to participate in the Middle School Meet of Champions, one of Oregon's biggest, most competitive meets. She competed in the 3000-meter run, and not only did she place well, but more importantly, she improved her time by 20 seconds. Great job, Natalie!
