What an incredible turnout for our first Oakdale Art Showcase! A huge thank you to Mrs. Camp, Mrs. Keyser, and Mrs. Blevins for their hard work in creating such beautiful displays. The variety of projects was amazing, and seeing students proudly share their artwork with parents and grandparents was truly special!
Also, a big shoutout to OSF for their support and help in making this event a reality!

Congratulations to the 5th and 6th Grade Academic Team and Coach Jordyn Lanier! 👏👏👏 You all rocked it! Go Rockets! 🚀


There's a reason track athletes are called ‘The Marines of Athletics!’ After a 14-hour day at the Yukon Track Meet on Friday, these students will take away lessons in teamwork, resilience, friendship—and hopefully, some fun! It was a long day, but they gave it their all and did an outstanding job! Proud of their effort! 🎉🎉#ProudtoBeaRocket🚀









Construction is picking up around here. Next week will bring some disruption to our normal procedures. The construction for the awning near the fine arts building will begin on Monday. This will not change drop-off or pick-up, but we will need to keep the circle parking area clear throughout the day. Families that typically drop-off / pick-up in the circle drive will continue to do that, but do not park there or you may come back to a cement paint job.

Shoutout to our amazing administrators for going the extra mile and stepping in to help with cafeteria cleanup! True leadership in action! #ProudtoBeaRocket🚀




Today, our 6th-grade students had an exciting hands-on learning experience with a frog investigation led by Mrs. Harrison! This interactive lesson helped students explore anatomy, biology, and the wonders of the natural world in a memorable way. #ProudtoBeaRocket🚀
