Throughout the year the parents, students and community have been so supportive of the PTO and its many fundraising activities. These activities provide the “extras” that go into the education of our children. No one realizes this more than the teachers and staff at Oak Street Elementary.
Thank you for all that you do!
Room Parents

This year we are planning to do a little more for the GREAT TEACHERS at Oak Street during staff appreciation week.  We would like to get the kids and parents involved in providing an unforgettable week of celebration!

As you may recall in your room parent packet, there was a brief paragraph asking you to all be involved in the planning of this great event.  In order to not leave any teachers out, please prepare to attend the planning meeting on April 14 at 6:30-8:00.  Again it is essential that there is a representative from EVERY class here.  If you are unable to attend, please try to find another parent from your child’s class that will attend for you.  Thank you all in advance for helping make this year the best year for our teachers!

Please RSVP to Stephanie Yost at 722-4387 or yost@sbcglobal.net.
