Happy Motivational Monday here at Oak Street! We love all the pink that Mrs. Moses is sharing on this dreary day. She said bright colors, especially when it is cold and cloudy, always help bring a little extra positiveness to a day. We also love her t-shirt message to have a good day! Thanks for being such a bright light in first grade on this cold Monday in January.
We are coming at you after a three day school week with our newest Tiger Ticket winners. This cute group won their own set of Scented Crayons. These are so cool because they twist open and have lids. Good job using your Tiger Traits and congratulations! We can't wait to see the delicious smelling art that you create! We also have our two latest Novel Nala winners. Enjoy your time with Nala!
18 spots left on the Spring GOTR team at USD 265-Oak Street Elementary!

We also have our two additional Novel Nala winners! Such a lucky group to be picked from all the tiger tickets turned in this week! Enjoy and congratulations!

Congratulations to Shae Enegren (1st Grade Teacher at Oak Street Elementary School) and Elizabeth "Lizzie" Toribio (Mixed Abilities Teacher at Eisenhower Middle School) for being recognized today with the 2024 Kansas Horizon Award! Each school district can nominate one elementary educator and/or one secondary educator. Goddard USD 265 nominated both Enegren and Toribio, and both won!
The Kansas Commissioner of Education, Dr. Randy Watson, took time to individually call each recipient, inform them and congratulate them. Enegren and Toribio are two of only 32 educators in the state to win this award for excellence in their first year of teaching. According to the Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE), the Horizon Award "identifies and recognizes representatives of excellent teaching in the elementary and secondary classrooms of the state." Goddard Public Schools could not be more proud of our Horizon Award winners, as well as all of the excellent educators that call USD 265 home. Thank you for all you do to make our school communities an environment of excellence for our students, staff and families!
Please join us in congratulating Shae & Lizzie on this prestigious award - very well deserved!
Student of the month Tiger Trait winners were announced today. Congratulations to these Oak Street Tigers for being so generous and showing such gratitude.
