Upcoming Virtual Family Engagement Activity (FEA)!

Ollie the Otter is extra excited to invite OCA families to a special Virtual Family Engagement Activity in partnership with the South Carolina Aquarium—and it’s all about river otters (aka Ollie’s friends)!

River Otter Adventure!
Students will journey to the mountains to “meet” resident river otters Charlie and Beau and learn about the amazing adaptations that help them thrive in cooler waters. It’s a fun, interactive way to learn—Ollie-approved, of course.

Friday, January 30
Grades K–2: 10:00 AM
Grades 3–5: 11:30 AM

Important reminder: The event link will appear in students’ planners closer to the event, so be sure to check as the date approaches.

Ollie can’t wait for OCA students to dive in, learn something new, and meet his river otter pals—learning is always better when it’s shared with friends!

📌 Link coming soon in your student planners!
