Bright and sunny on Monday and cooler and cloudy on Tuesday, but that didn’t stop Coach Andrews, Coach Lowe, Mrs. Ford, and Mrs. Camp from giving it their all and making it two GREAT days for our K-5th grade students! 🏃‍♂️⚽🎈

Students enjoyed being outside, staying active, and participating in fun, structured field day activities with their classmates all day long! 💙🚀

A special shoutout to the parents who volunteered to run stations and to our amazing 8th graders who stayed and stepped up to help continue a tradition that goes way back. Seeing students help and encourage their former book buddies in a whole new way was such a cool thing to witness! 📚❤️

We also want to recognize the 6th and 7th graders who filled in the gaps whenever needed. Kudos to our older students for stepping up and serving others! 👏

At Oakdale, patriotism is part of our daily routine. 🇺🇸 Walk through our halls and you’ll see our fifth graders and our other students standing tall, saluting the American flag, and proudly reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. Moments like these remind us of the importance of respect, unity, and love for our country—values we’re proud to instill in our students every day. ❤️🤍💙 #OakdalePride #Patriotism #FutureLeaders #Respect

Fathiyah Ayodele, a proud former Oakdale student and 2026 graduate of Edmond Memorial High School, continues to shine as an example of dedication, leadership, and academic excellence. Recently named an Oklahoma Academic All-Stater, Fathiyah has also served as a Teen Leader for the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation and was accepted into a prestigious pre-med program as an OU Medical Humanities Scholar.
The Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence ceremony honored the Academic All-Staters and their honored teacher-guests at a dinner on May 2. The event will be televised on OETA this Saturday at 3:00 p.m. and Sunday at 10:00 a.m. Fathiyah’s winning essay reflected on the impact of her 8th-grade ELA teacher, Mrs. Hartman, now in her seventh year of teaching middle school ELA at Oakdale. In her writing, Fathiyah described how the high expectations and encouragement she received at Oakdale inspired her to push beyond her limits and continue striving for excellence in high school and beyond.

This fall, she will take the next step in her journey by studying medicine at the University of Oklahoma. Oakdale is proud to celebrate Fathiyah’s success and looks forward to all she will accomplish in the years ahead.
