Welcome to Oakview!
2019 - 2020
It is my sincere hope you are enjoying summer. I have certainly enjoyed time with my family! The purpose of today’s communication is to share with you information about our registration process for the 2019 - 2020 school year.
I look forward to the beginning of the 2019 - 2020 school year. In partnership with you, this promises to be a year of success, progress, and growth for our students. I hope you enjoy the remainder of the summer. I will see you soon!

General registration information
When can I register my child?
The week of August 12, 2019 you will receive an email from PowerSchool Enrollment with your code. Please check your junk/spam folder if you are not receiving communication(s) from PE that week. If you have not received information or you have an issue with your registration code, contact the main office. If you do not have access to a computer, you are welcome to come to Oakview starting Monday, August 19, 2019 to use a computer. It is imperative that the person that begins the PE process completes it. If the other person logs on, the system will lock.
If you have a student at Lake Orion High School you will receive information that registration information August 1, 2019. You will not receive elementary or middle school student registration information until August 12, 2019.
Pictures - Smile pretty
School picture packages can be ordered online with Geskus Photography https://geskusphoto.com/?a=1586 or paid for on registration day. If the link does not work properly, go to www.geskusphoto.com website and enter in our school webcode 1586QFWNAOAYSO. It is important to note that every student needs to be photographed for school records at no cost to the family; picture packages are optional for families.

Yearbook
If you are interested in purchasing a yearbook, orders can only be placed online with Jostens. Attached is information on how to order your yearbook. Please keep in mind that yearbooks can be purchased online throughout the school year, with a deadline in the mid-winter. After the deadline, yearbooks are available for purchase on the last day of school on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Walk through
Student walk through will be held on Tuesday, August 20, 2019. If you have not completed the on-line registration before your arrival, we will have computer stations for you to use. Save time by completing this task from home! On walk through day, students and parents will be able to pick up their schedule, locker assignment, and get their student picture taken, only after the on-line registration has been completed. Your advance preparation will make the process faster for everyone. The time frame is below:
8th grade => 8:00 - 9:30 am
7th grade => 10:00 - 11:30 am
CLOSED => 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

Notes from Food Service
It is highly recommended that you pay for your child's breakfast and/or lunch online through www.sendmoneytoschool.com. This is an easy way to ensure that your money is used to feed your child and does not go to anything else :).

Fall athletic information
If your child is going to participate in athletics at the high school or middle school level, below is a very important message regarding our new student registration system. All student-athletes need to be registered before they are allowed to try out and practice with their teams.
We are excited to announce that the Athletic Department for Lake Orion Community Schools is launching FinalForms, an online system that will help us boost compliance and safety. FinalForms allows you to complete and sign forms from your computer, tablet, or mobile device.
The best news is: FinalForms saves data from season-to-season and year-to-year, meaning that you will never need to enter the same information twice!
FinalForms also pre-populates information wherever possible, saving you time if you have multiple children.
You may login any time to update information including emergency medical contacts and information. You will be required to sign your forms once per year and any time you make an update.
Please register at: https://lakeorion-mi.finalforms.com
Follow the prompts to create your account, manage your students, and sign your forms. Click on the Parent Playbook (attached) for additional guidance.
If you require any support during the process, scroll to the bottom of any page and click 'Use Support'.
Thank you for your assistance in streamlining processes, boosting compliance, and increasing safety in our school district.
