Pajama Day Wednesday

Oak View invites interested students to wear school-appropriate pajamas tomorrow, Wednesday, for our December Eagle's Nest Read-In. This has become an awesome tradition and we look forward to our buddy classes sharing in the event together.  We even have a virtual crackling fire for the students to gather around and share stories.

Spotlight on Learning

Oak View 2nd graders enjoy their “hour of coding” week by being introduced to binary code! In a non-tech approach, they learned to substitute “0” and “1” for colors, to create their own name necklace through binary code! Kudos to Mrs. Sousa for creatively coding off the computers. We look forward to sharing more visits in upcoming Reviews.

Winter Break Begins Friday

Oak View reminds families that our last day of school is Friday, December 20 for this calendar year. We hope you enjoy time with family and friends over the winter break. Please travel safely and rest up for the start of 2020! Many of us heard about 2020 forever and we are just a few short weeks away. We look forward to welcoming students back on Monday, January 6, 2020! Best wishes for a healthy and happy new year as well!

Oak View continues to take registrants for the upcoming Spelling Bee. This event is part of the Scripps National Spelling Bee program. This is an enriching experience open to all interested students in Grades 3-6. If your student is interested, please complete the interest form here. A set of words will be sent home within a few days of students being registered. The Grade Level Bees are scheduled at Oak View on Tuesday, February 11 and the school-wide Bee will be scheduled for Thursday, February 20. Families of Bee Finalists are invited to the school-wide Bee on the 20th. We thank the Oak View PTA for their support and look forward to a s-p-e-c-t-a-c-u-l-a-r event!

We will Let It Go

Oak View reminds families that as you visit school in the next few days, please set aside some time to claim any lost items. The items are currently located in the front lobby. Thank you for looking and claiming as any unclaimed items will be donated over winter break. We have jackets, water bottles, lunch boxes and so much more! A special shout out of appreciation to our Lost and Found Fairy for helping us all find things better!
