Mr. Jeff Downing Asst. Principal x54104 jdowning@ fremont.k12.ca.us Oliveira Office Open Monday—Friday 7:45 a.m.—3:45 p.m.
Oliveira students, families and staff, As I picture all of you in my mind, the biggest "Hope" I have is that each one of you were able to enjoy these last two weeks of Winter Break. I was able to rest and enjoy my wonderful family. I read, as I always do, many different genres and started a new journal. It is important to reflect on previous accomplishments as we set our sights on next steps. I look forward to continuing our work together to support Oliveira Eagle students that have been placed on our journey. Parents and guardians, please support your students with the trait this month—Planning and Decision-Making! Students, I look forward to seeing how you have planned to be a suc-cessful student and how you make decisions that support yourself, your teachers, your families and your peers.
—Mrs. Linda Anderson, Principal

In addition, siblings and toddlers are not allowed on cam-pus while you are volunteering or at school events during the instructional day, as the classrooms are not toddler proof. This is for the safety of all children. Thank you for your cooperation.
