Wow Oak Hill! What an incredibly successful Race for Education! Our school community raised nearly $40,000 for our students!

But Race for Education is so much more than a fundraiser. Our students, faculty and staff were so excited to participate in a day of that celebrated hard work, exercise and overall mental-well being. They were smiling from start to finish, singing to the music together and having fun outside! 

A sincere THANK YOU goes out to the administration, teachers and staff for all of their help and coordination to make this day happen.  A heartfelt thank you to Allison Hamilton, Brooke Shivers, Fallon Wareham, Jhena Sword, Thomas Nagle, Megan Sundberg, Elena Stargel, Charlene Lull, Sandra Sonoka, and all our the volunteers who helped to set up, clean up, hand out popsicles, count laps, and everything else in between who helped from sun-up to the very end - it seriously could not happen without our Oak Hill village. 

Thank you to the families who contributed to this fundraiser that will impact each student as they continue at Oak Hill Elementary! We are so grateful for all of our helping hands that made this day so much fun!

Thank you to our race chair Jean Nagle for all of her hard work in putting together our Race for Education! The day ran so smoothly because of you! 

The 5th Grade vs Faculty Kickball Game will take place on Tuesday, June 4th from 8:05 to 9:30am. All volunteer positions have been filled, so a big thank you to all those who stepped up  to help!

On June18th there will be one last summer break purge in the morning to give families a few extra days to realize they might not have come home with something. Anything unclaimed by June 18th will be donated to charity upon the conclusion of school.

Don't forget to follow @OHESLnF on Instragram to review photos of current items.

We would love to have you and your incoming kindergartner join us for some summer play dates to get to know other students who will be going into Kindergarten this Fall. There is a Facebook group for the class of 2037 with more info about planned activities and dates!
