Olympia School District

Olympia School District students and staff who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, or have been exposed to someone with the virus, may be tested for free at a drive-through COVID-19 testing site at the Capital Region Education Service District 113 (ESD 113).

The Olympia School District is committed to creating an equitable school district that serves ALL students well. As part of that commitment, the district is developing and implementing an Equity Policy that will include procedures and accountability measures. The policy will be collaboratively designed with the community to ensure a more inclusive school and work culture that promotes equity and addresses systemic and institutional barriers that have historically marginalized students, staff and families.

The Olympia School District is part of a regional group, including some other Thurston County school districts, that is in the beginning stages of exploring the concept of a balanced calendar. More information will be shared with the community in January, as well as opportunities for input.

In September 2021 Olympia School District plans to return to full-time in-person learning. The district will also offer a Virtual Academy of Olympia for students who choose to learn remotely.
