Updates and Reminders - May 30, 2025
Despite a soggy start, we ended up having a great Field Day! Thank you to Mr. Kelly for organizing, to the staff for guiding the way, and to all the parent helpers for running the games, and donating fruit and water. Everyone pulled together and made it a great day for the kids. Here are some additional updates and reminders as we head into the weekend:
- Owls Who Love Speed Running Club is cancelled for today due to a long day of fun in the sun.
- Next week is our final week for the Z-A Countdown. Here are the themed days:
- Monday- E for Exercise (PE) Day.
- Tuesday- D for Dance Day.
- Wednesday- C for Computer Science Day.
- Thursday- B for Beach Day.
- Friday- A for Art Day.
- The Spring Clothing Drive will be held tomorrow, Saturday 5/31 from 9am to Noon. Clean out your closets, load it up in trash bags, and drive through our collection event to drop off and help our school raise funds - we earn money for every pound you donate! Please see the Home and School site for flyer & details.
- Our Spring Flea Market & Bake Sale is coming up on Saturday, 5/31 from 8am to 1pm. Registration will still be open through the weekend if you'd like to join us as a yard-saler! 100% of your registration fee directly benefits Oak Ridge. We're also seeking baked good donations for this event. Please see this LINK to sign up for baked goods, or this LINK to volunteer.
- Our 5th grade Moving Up Ceremony will be on Monday, June 9th at 12:00 in the Gym. We ask that families limit the number to four guests so we can accommodate everyone. Younger siblings at Oak Ridge do not attend the ceremony. We honor the 5th graders again on Tuesday by saying farewell as a school and showing their video.
