Oak View Review

Three Students

Hello Oak View families! March is buzzing with excitement, learning experiences, and laughter. As Eleanor Roosevelt wisely said, 'The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.' We can all inspire our students to spread their wings and dream BIG!

Campus Cleanup Day

Join us for our spring campus cleanup day on March 29 from 9 to 12. We'll be weeding and picking up any trash that has accumulated around the campus.  Let’s get together and make our campus look beautiful!  Please bring gloves and any shovels or rakes that you may have available. Scouting and other groups are welcome.  We’re happy to sign off on volunteer hours for secondary students, as well.

Our rain date will be April 5, and if you sign up on our Sign Up Genius we can let you know any updates on the morning of the cleanup.  If you have any questions, you can reach out to Oak View’s Get2Green Coordinators: Kim Andray and Amy Riddick.  


Kate Messner book

Kate Messner Author Visit

Kate Messner will be coming to Oak View on book tour! If you’d like to order a signed copy of the book, please order on MySchoolBucks.

As part of this FREE author visit, we are required to order all books through the school. Please do not purchase your book through another retailer. Kate will be visiting multiple schools on May 5, and will sign the books off-site before coming to Oak View, so we can only guarantee books ordered through the school will be signed. Ordering is always optional.

See more information on our website.

Students who are fasting during the school day between now and March 28 can take school meal kits home at the end of the day. Families must fill out a separate request form for each week and for each student in order to receive school meal kits.
