From Pre-K through 8th grade, students and teachers lined the halls to cheer them on and celebrate their accomplishments. Following the walk, seniors enjoyed a special reception with their former Oakdale teachers thanks to the generosity of parents who helped make the event possible.
It was inspiring to see so many former Rockets who have gone on to excel in high school and beyond. Among this outstanding group were valedictorians, salutatorians, class presidents, StuCo presidents, and many other student leaders who continue to make us proud to have been part of their journey.
We wish the Class of 2026 continued success and happiness in all they do. No matter where life takes them, once a Rocket, always a Rocket! 🚀 #OakdaleRockets #ClassOf2026 #OnceARocketAlwaysARocket
🎶🎺 Our 5th–8th grade bands wrapped up their spring concerts last week with fantastic performances for both students and families on Tuesday and Thursday evenings! 👏🎵
The growth, talent, and dedication of our student musicians were on full display. A huge thank you to Mr. Hall and Ms. Toles for all the hard work, time, and energy they pour into helping students master their instruments and develop a lifelong love of music. 🎼💙
We also want to give a HUGE shoutout to OSF for their continued support of our music program through instruments, music resources, and assistance with the Dallas trip. Opportunities like these would not be possible without your generosity and support! 🚀
We look forward to the continued growth, performances, and musical memories that next year will bring! 🎶✨

5th graders and their teachers had a great time celebrating Cinco De Mayo! 🎉🌮🎥
This fun class celebration was earned through the Oakdale School Foundation Kids Auction, where the teachers put together a special party for the entire class. Students learned about the culture and history behind Cinco de Mayo while enjoying a day full of fun activities.
The class enjoyed nachos, played bingo, and wrapped up the day watching CoCo together. 🍿🎶✨This is another great example of why OSF is such an important part of Oakdale and how their support helps create unique opportunities and memorable experiences for our students every day! 💖🚀

Faculty and staff recently enjoyed a sweet retirement celebration honoring Dr. Johnson and Mrs. Padgett for their years of dedication and service to Oakdale. ❤️🚀
Mrs. Padgett’s journey at Oakdale began as an Oakdale mom with her two younger sons before returning to the classroom full-time and coaching volleyball. Through the years, she led many successful volleyball seasons and made a lasting impact, helping students strengthen their reading skills in her Reading Club class. She has been a steady source of encouragement and support to students and coworkers alike, always willing to lend a helping hand. Mrs. Padgett will certainly be missed, but we are excited for her as she begins this next chapter filled with fun, family, and relaxation.
Dr. Johnson has been a part of the Oakdale community for many years and has faithfully served as Superintendent for the past three years. His family legacy at Oakdale has continued with leadership, dedication, and deep respect for our students, faculty, and community. We are grateful for the confidence, vision, and leadership he brought to Oakdale during his time of service.
We wish both Mrs. Padgett and Dr. Johnson many happy years ahead, filled with travel, relaxation, and special memories with loved ones. Thank you both for the lasting impact you have made on Oakdale! 💙
🐮✨ What a COWtastic learning experience for our 4th graders! ✨🐮
Students had an amazing time meeting and learning about calves raised by the Bixler family from Winoka, Oklahoma. They got to pet the calves, practice leading them, and a few students even enjoyed some sweet calf hugs! 🤎🐄
The Bixlers shared so much fascinating information about ranch life and caring for calves. Students learned:
-The Bixler ranch was established years before Oklahoma became a state and has stayed in the family for generations 🤠
- The differences between male and female cows
- When a male/female twin calf is born, the female is unable to have babies
- Calves can begin walking about 30 minutes after birth 🐾
- How quickly calves grow, and the process of bottle feeding and weaning before moving to a boys ranch when they are older
This hands-on experience truly brought agriculture and Oklahoma history to life for our students! 🌾💡
A huge thank you to the Bixler family for sharing their time, knowledge, and adorable calves with Oakdale! 👏

🧠📐✨ 5th Grade GT Math Project: Design Challenge! ✨📐🧠
Students took on exciting challenges such as designing a cruise ship, movie theater, and even an escape room! 🚢🎬🔐
The project began with students solving challenging math problems connected to each design process. Then, they took their learning a step further by applying those skills through hands-on, creative projects that they designed and presented to their peers. 👏💡
We love seeing students combine critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and presentation skills in meaningful ways! Great job, Rockets! 🚀

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! 👏

🚀 Oakdale School
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.
