Oster Cougar Newsletter
Message from Principal Mrs. Taormina
Hello Oster Families,
Welcome to the new school year. The staff and I are so excited to start the 23/24 school year, and we can't wait to meet all our new students and welcome back our returning students. Today's newsletter is being shared with our veteran families, new incoming Oster families, and families currently on our "Over Enrollment Waiting List." We want to be sure that everyone is receiving updates about the start of the school year. The District Office is reviewing enrollment across all our schools, and families on the waiting list will be notified of enrollment status as soon as possible.
Parents, please visit our school website https://oster.unionsd.org throughout the year for helpful information about important school dates, schedules, and upcoming events. Classroom placement will be sent via email on Monday, August 14, and our office will be open starting Tuesday, August 8th, 8:00-3:00.
Important Upcoming Dates:
August 15th Kindergarten and Transitional Kindergarten Meet and Greet 11:00-11:30 pm.

Oster's Office Administrative Assistant and Health Clerk
Mrs. Gladys Beagle and Mrs. Sarah Lee are here to support our families. Feel free to contact them with any questions you might have between now and the start of school, and they would be happy to assist you. Also, if you are receiving this email and your family has moved and will no longer be attending Oster, please email Mrs. Beagle at beagleg@unionsd.org. It's critical we have accurate numbers before the first day of school so we can offer any open spots to our families who are being overflowed.
Tuesday, August 15th, 11:00-11:30
Please join the Oster Tk and Kindergarten Teachers on the Oster Playground for a playful meet and greet.
Mark your calendars! Mrs. Taormina will be hosting a Welcome Back Coffee and Q&A for parents on the first day of school, Wednesday, August 16h at 8:15 in front of the Oster Cafeteria.
