Here for a parent-teacher conference tonight? Check out our lost and found items on the stage area in the cafeteria. Items will be donated tomorrow, so even if you don't have a conference tonight, you are welcome to stop by the school from now until 7:30 pm to take a look.

Items from the lost and found are on the stage in the cafeteria. If you are here for a parent-teacher conference tonight or Monday, stop by and see if anything might belong to your child. Any remaining items will be donated on March 1st.

FOOD DRIVE BEGINS WEDNESDAY! We will have a school-wide food drive benefitting the Oakdale Rocket Pantry beginning on Wednesday, February 7th, and concluding on February 16th. Grade levels will be grouped to compete for a donut party contest (PreK-2nd, 3rd-5th, 6th-8th). Items that will count as double points instead of just one point are the food items that are most in need: canned vegetables, single-serving cereal boxes, raisins, and non-perishable single-serve milk packs (chocolate or white milk). Thank you in advance for your help!
