12 Days of Spinozi was a huge success!
With the teamwork of Ms. Malisa and Mr. Cavin, Oakdale raised over $1300 for The Oklahoma City Center! And yes… that meant Spinozi got a pie in the face! 🥧🤣
Spinozi volunteers and works year-round to support families in need during the holiday season, and he was so appreciative of our amazing OAKDALE ROCKETS for showing up with big hearts. 💙🚀
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who donated and to our teachers for coming to the Pie-in-the-Face assembly.
WE ARE ROCKETS! 💥🚀💛

Justin Colon, author of Quaken, visited Oakdale on our 67th day of school! 📚✨ He brought incredible energy and kept the crowd entertained as he shared his journey to becoming an author and what it takes to write a children’s book. Students loved the audience participation as he walked them through the writing process in a fun and memorable way!
A huge thank-you to Mrs. Scott for bringing an author all the way from New York to Oakdale, and to the OSF for making this amazing experience possible! 💙✏️

✨❄️ Wow! Oakdale’s First Winter Market was an amazing success! ❄️✨
A huge thank you to Joanna McCool for organizing this fantastic event and creating a space to highlight the incredible talent within our local community.
Because of your support, the Winter Market raised over $2,500 for Oakdale Cares! ❤️💙
It was such a wonderful way to bring together former and current Rockets for a meaningful cause. The atmosphere was festive, the vendors were fabulous, and the community spirit was truly heartwarming.
Thank you to ALL of our vendors and to everyone who came out to support them—and Oakdale!

Support the 12 Days of Spinozi tradition with Ms. Malisa in the cafeteria! 🎄✨
We’re collecting coins this week to donate to the Oklahoma City Center, and every penny helps our Rockets make a difference. 💛
And the best part? If we reach our goal… Spinozi gets a pie in the face! 🥧😂
So clean out those couch cushions, piggy banks, and the spot under the sofa—you never know what treasures you’ll find! 😉
Let’s do this, Rockets! 🚀❤️
🚢❄️ Titanic Week in 3rd Grade! ❄️🚢
This week, our students dove into a historical fiction book about the Titanic—and then took their learning a step further with some chilly hands-on experiments!
🧊 Students put their hands into ice-cold water (about the same temp as the North Atlantic!) to feel just how freezing it was the night the Titanic sank.
🦭 Then we explored how animal blubber helps marine mammals survive extreme cold. Students rubbed their hands with Crisco and dipped them into the icy water again to test out the insulating “blubber.”
Lots of shocked faces, lots of laughter, and lots of learning!

🎶🦃 Look at what Mrs. Ford and our K–1 st grade students have been up to in Music!
Our kindergarteners and first graders were busy prepping for Family Feast in the cutest way possible — by turning scarves and percussion instruments into… TURKEYS!
From colorful feathers to creative flair, these mini-artists designed their own turkey “disguises,” just like the first grade turkeys that decorated the tables at the feast.
And the best part? Kindergarten and first grade joined together to sing “Where Are the Feathers?” while decorating their turkey instruments. Pure holiday magic. 🧡💛
Way to go, little Rockets — you made the music room extra festive!

Wow—what an incredible Family Feast Day we had today! 🦃🍁
We are overflowing with gratitude and want to start by giving a HUGE shoutout to our amazing cafeteria crew, led by Malisa Raddatz. Their preparation and teamwork for this day were truly awe-inspiring!
A big thank-you to Oakdale Baptist Church for manning the serving lines and drink station, and to Oakdale Church of Christ for bussing tables and helping clean up the gym afterward. We couldn’t pull this off without you!
Check out a few fun stats from today’s feast:
🥧 1,900+ people served
🦃 58 turkeys cooked
🥖 1,680 rolls
🥘 2,074 servings of stuffing
🫛 103 gallons of green beans
💛 25 gallons of gravy
🍰 1,700 pumpkin pies/cakes
🍒 1,100 servings of cranberries
🌾 And our first-ever gluten-free line!
We captured some fantastic memories with GLP, and Oakdale’s tradition of sitting down together to enjoy this special feast is truly one for the memory books.
Wishing everyone a wonderful time with family and friends—until next November!🦃🍂
