NEEDED: 345 Cluster Coordinator for Next YearHave you been looking to get more involved in parent leadership at Odyssey. Well if you're the parent of a 345 child next year then you're in luck!
Here's the basic rundown on the job description of the 345 cluster coordinator: Serve as a central person for teachers to contact to make sure that cluster-specific volunteer posts are covered when needed. For example, if teachers need a field study coordinator or classroom volunteers, your role would be to delegate/help identify individuals willing to help. Basically, you are a go-to person for both teachers and parents to ensure streamlined communication within the cluster and make sure that cluster-specific needs are being met.
If you have any questions or would like to nominate yourself (or a friend), please don't hesitate to contact Brendan Stamper (ospc-chair@odysseyprogram.org).
Thank you,
Brendan

Summer Reading Starts June 16! Join over 100,000 area youth to play the Summer Reading game at Multnomah County Library. Players read, listen to audiobooks, or complete gameboard activities, then mark off those days on a gameboard. Students earn t-shirts and other prizes for making a habit of reading! Summer Reading is free, and kids who finish the game will be entered into a Grand Prize drawing for a trip for four to Great Wolf Lodge waterpark!
Besides supporting reading, the Summer Reading program includes a wide array of fun, free events for children, teens and families. Neighborhood libraries will offer free music, puppet shows, crafts, maker sessions and many other activities all summer long. Reading through the summer helps youth maintain or improve their skills so they can start school in the fall ready to learn. Summer Reading runs June 16-August 31, and you’re invited!
