Oakdale students crushed the Kids Heart Challenge — raising an incredible $7,002 for a great cause! ❤️🔥
Coach Lowe made a deal… any student who raised $100 or more got to SLIME him — and they delivered! Buckets of slime + big smiles = unforgettable fun!
Way to go, Rockets! Proud of your big hearts and generous spirit! 🚀

Pre-K Graduation Day was filled with pride, joy, and the sweetest memories! 🎓
Our littlest Rockets kicked off the celebration with salutes, the school creed, the Pre-K creed, and a heartwarming performance of Big, Big Dreams — followed by the Kindergarten Here We Come poem.
Each student had their special moment, shaking hands with Mrs. Foster and Dr. Johnson and receiving a rose from Mrs. Booker. The slideshow had everyone smiling (and tearing up just a little)!
The seed has been planted… now watch it grow.
These amazing Rockets are ready to soar into Kindergarten! 🚀
Mrs. Parish is so proud of how far they’ve come and all they’ve accomplished this year.

Mr. Burns got to take the day off on Monday since there was a new intermediate principal for the day! Ramsey greeted students at carpool, said the morning announcements, worked the scanner in the cafeteria, conducted teacher observations, and received a Sonic drink and a Crumbl cookie. Thank you, OSF, for creating opportunities like this for our staff and students! #ProudToBeARocket

The rain couldn’t stop our kindergarten cowboys and cowgirls from showing off their rodeo spirit! 🤠 Despite the weather on April 25th, the annual Kindergarten Rodeo was a rootin’-tootin’ success — moved indoors but full of fun!
Students rotated through exciting events like the sack race, hay hauling, egg race, horseshoes, flag race, and barrel race! Yeehaw for making memories, rain or shine! 🌧️🐎
