Dear All,
Please join us for a surprise retirement party for Mr. Scott tomorrow, April 29, immediately following the 7th/8th Grade Band Concert at River Oaks Golf Course.
The celebration will run approximately from 7:15 PM to 9:30 PM.
Please keep it a secret — Mr. Scott has no idea!
We hope you can come help us celebrate his incredible career!
On Tuesday, the Oakdale faculty and staff came together to celebrate the retirement of two cherished members of our Rocket family — Bob Scott and Marlene Dunn. Their dedication, kindness, and impact on our school community have been truly remarkable. We wish them both the best as they begin this exciting new chapter — it’s so well deserved! Thank you for everything. Once a Rocket, always a Rocket! 🚀 #OakdaleFamily
Mrs. Reddick needs this year's Rocket Run shirt for their trip to Washington D.C. She still needs a few blue 2024 Rocket Run T-shirts for the 8th graders who are going to DC/NYC in a few weeks. We coordinate our shirts, but the 8th-grade T-shirt was black. If you are willing to donate yours, we need:
XS-3
S - 3
M - 5
You can email her at lreddick@oakdale.org to let her know if you have one.
Exciting day in first grade! Mrs. Carter, Mrs. Stratton, and Mrs. Clements’ classrooms got to witness science in action as their baby chicks 🐣 hatched today! Such a special hands-on learning moment — classroom learning at its best! #HatchingDay #ScienceInAction #FirstGradeFun #ProudToBeARocket
Our 5th graders are getting hands-on with history in art class with Mrs. Keyser by creating monogram 'samplers' — just like children did in colonial times to practice their alphabet and numbers. A fun and creative way to connect art with the past! #ColonialCrafts #ArtAndHistory #HandsOnLearning #ProudToBeARocket

So proud of their hard work and creativity! #FutureHistorians #StudentShowcase #ProudToBeARocket
Shout out to our Middle School Librarian for the day, Lucy Turney. Lucy won this opportunity from the OSF online kids auction. Last Thursday, Lucy spent the day in the Middle School
Library. She assisted by helping with classes, checking books in, shelving, and checking books out to students. Lucy enjoyed a special lunch in the library and got some reading swag too. We may have a future librarian on our hands! #RocketReaders #ProudToBeARocket

Dusti Bowling was so awesome, we just had to do TWO posts! 🙌📚
She led three dynamic, all-grade presentations and then spent a class period with Mrs. Rihn’s 7th-grade ELA class—bringing along skeletons of desert animals and answering a ton of thoughtful questions from students! 🦴🌵
To top it off, Dusti had lunch with Mrs. Jones and the students who had read Canyon’s Edge and Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus. They played bingo, decorated cactus cookies, and had some amazing conversations—she was fully engaged with every student and made the day unforgettable! 🎉🍪🎲
10/10 speaker and an even more incredible human being. We’re so grateful to OSF and our amazing Oakdale parents who helped make this opportunity possible. THANK YOU! 💜
