Olympia Middle School students got a special surprise this morning as they arrived for their last day of school before Thanksgiving break! Sparty the Spartan, Olympia's beloved mascot, was on hand to greet students with high-fives, smiles, and plenty of Spartan spirit.
Sparty's positive energy and enthusiasm brought smiles to everyone's faces and created a sense of community and excitement for the upcoming holiday.
Sparty's appearance was a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season and spread some extra cheer throughout the halls of Olympia Middle School. A big thank you to Sparty for making this a Thanksgiving to remember!
Go Spartans!
