Oak Ridge Family Focus
April 5th Edition
Remote Learning: Week 2
Welcome to week 2 of Remote Learning! Click here for the Remote Learning website.
Please know that daily assignments will now be posted for the entire week on Monday morning. So for this week, on Monday, April 6th, assignments for April 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th will be available to view and complete. Students are still encouraged to work each day, but we hope this will help our families at home who may have different work schedules. If you need anything or have questions about assignments, please do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher.
No Remote Learning Friday & Next Monday
Even though we are not physically in school, there will still be no school (remote learning) on Friday, April 10th and Monday, April 13th. These are treated as normal days off in the school year. You can see here on the district calendar.
Oak Ridge Office Hours
The front office staff will be available to answer phone calls from 9:00am-1:00pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Please note the building is still closed. However, if you have questions, please give us a call at 708-598-5713. If you call outside of those hours, please leave a message, and we will return your call as soon as possible.
Parent Resource
Check out this video for students which explains to them why we are out of school and strategies they can use if they are feeling worried. Feel free to share with your child(ren) if it helps.

We will continue to provide meals at no cost to all children 18 and under. Meal packets can be picked up between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM at Conrady Junior High School.

Spirit Week
We will continue our weekly Wednesday Spirit Days at Oak Ridge. Be sure to dress up in your PJs, take a picture of your child in their spirit wear, send it to your child's teacher, and look out for the photos on Twitter and the Family Focus Newsletter!
Have a wonderful week of learning, send fun pictures of your child learning at home to his/her teachers, and let us know how we can help you at home!
