Oak Grove Update!
October 2020
From the Principal's Office:
We have almost finished a full quarter of school! Shout out to teachers, support staff, parents and students for everything they have done to ensure that we can be in school and keep learning. We have an AMAZING school community! Parent teacher conferences are coming up! While we do have in-person options, we are strongly encouraging families choose a virtual option for obvious reasons. The important thing to remember is that whether in-person, over Zoom or through a phone call, teachers and families are connecting about students. We are looking forward to sharing successes and setting some goals with you and your students.
Be kind, and be well!
Dana Carpenter
Principal, OGES
