Updates and Reminders - November 7, 2025
Today was another reminder of how lucky I am to work in such a great school with amazing students, teachers and families. Our Veterans Day Assembly was a big success. The students rose to the occasion and sang their hearts out for our special guests. The veterans were very appreciative of the students singing and recognition. It was a proud day at Oak Ridge! Here are some additional updates and reminders:
- Each year, the Oak Ridge community fills bags with nonperishable food to help Oak Ridge families in need enjoy their Thanksgiving meal. Please sign up using this Google Form if you are able to help, thank you for your generosity!
- Join us for Family Bingo Night tonight, Friday, November 7th! This is a free event that starts at 6pm in the Oak Ridge Gym. Please also consider bringing non-perishable food items for Keystone Opportunity Center. We hope to see you there!
- Fourth Grade is hosting a bake sale outside Landis Supermarket tomorrow from 10:00am-2:00pm. The proceeds go towards offsetting their costs of the trip to Harrisburg.
- November 10-14 will be Kindness Week at Oak Ridge. We will focus on kindness activities each day and end our week with a visit from a local author named Hillary Sussman. Hillary is a physical therapist and the author of “The Adventures of Roxy” series. “The Adventures of Roxy” series teaches acceptance, kindness, and empathy. Here is list of our Kindness Week Activities and information about Hillary Sussman. If you would like to order her books, please see the order form.
