Odd Mind

Oak Hill's Odyssey of the Mind Team.


Odyssey of the Mind

Oak Hill's Odyssey of the Mind team won 1st place at the VA state tournament and has advanced to the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals, which will be held at Iowa State University later this month. 

Our team is the only one that will be representing Oak Hill at the World level, where teams from different countries will be competing. It's a team of seven 5th grader girls and is coached by Ginger Hawkins, an Oak Hill parent.  Congratulations to the team and best of luck at the World Finals!


Student’s Intention for the Next School Year

We need your help in letting us know if your child will be returning to Oak Hill next year.  This will help us in projecting our total enrollment for the next school year.  Student’s Intention for the Next School Year forms were sent home on April 11, 2018.   If you have already completed this form, thank you.  If you have not, please complete the form (directions are on the back of the form) and return it to your child’s teacher by this Friday, May 4.  If you need a new form, please contact your child's teacher.
