Olympia West Elementary School
linda durkee: All the staff is so friendly. They know my grandchildren by, even the younger one who is 2. I just moved here and although they might not know me by name; as even I don't know theirs, they do know who I am. They do keep track of the students as they are enterring and leaving the school. Thank You
