Important End of the Year News and Notes!

Tuesday, May 25, 2021

Hey Raccoons!

As we close out the end of a wild, different, but still incredibly fun year, I want to just take a minute to thank everyone for their support. 

  • To our staff who goes above and beyond every day—You demonstrated the utmost professionalism despite the changes and challenges this year brought. You have been working since last spring to learn new programs, think creatively about how to engage students, and find ways to build community, and I’m thankful for your unwavering dedication.
  • To our Raccoons who continue to impress us every day—I am inspired by your enthusiasm, perseverance, and positivity.  Get some rest this summer… you deserve it! 
  • To our families and community—Thank you! I know the year has been filled with various stressors, disagreements, and frustrations, but at the end of the day I am thankful for your trust and support. I look forward to charging ahead in our journey together and working to ensure your child is ready for whatever the future holds.

As we close out the year, I wanted to remind you of a few key events in the next coming weeks and share some important details as we prepare to launch the 2021-2022 school year. Check them out below and email me at CurtisJ@oasd.org if you have any questions!
