OMS Girls Basketball is BACK in action this week
The Lady Spartans kick off the week at home tonight at 5:00 PM vs. Lincoln-Broadwell. We have a busy week ahead, and both teams are ready to keep competing, learning, and growing.
The 8th-grade team is off to a fantastic 6-1 start! They are playing well together, pushing the ball up the court, and bringing great defensive intensity. Their teamwork, effort, and ability to compete together have been fun to watch as they continue to build momentum throughout the season.
The 7th-grade team is embracing the process and getting better every day. While their 1-6 start isn't the record they hoped for, this group is gaining valuable experience, learning to navigate the game, and finding opportunities to grow with every practice and competition.

Congratulations to the following students who were selected to participate in the 2026 ILMEA District Festivals!
These students prepared and submitted auditions in September, showcasing their musical skills through prepared excerpts and technique assessments. Judges reviewed hundreds of submissions from students across our ILMEA district to select the musicians who will participate in this year's festivals.
We are incredibly proud of these students and the hard work, dedication, and preparation they put into their auditions. It is exciting to see so many Olympia musicians recognized for their talents, and we can't wait to see them represent Olympia at the festivals in November!

We’re offering a few optional open gym opportunities for girls who are interested in getting some extra volleyball experience before MS Volleyball tryouts in early December!
These open gyms are NOT tryouts and attendance is not required. They are simply a chance to get in the gym, work on skills, get some reps, and have fun playing volleyball before the season begins.
Whether you’ve played before or are newer to the sport, we’d love to see you there!
