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 all of our volunteers 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 committee: Jean Nagle, Allison Hamilton, Steve Dimauro, and Brooke Shivers for all of their hard work in putting together our Race for Education!

Save the Date! Field Day is planned for Thursday, June 8. Field Day is a great day where Oak Hill students can have fun, be physically active, and review many of the activities they have learned throughout the year in Physical Education class.

Grades 3-5: 8:05am-10:30am
Grades K-2: 11:40pm-2:10pm

Each grade will wear a color (not mandatory, just for fun!)

K-Yellow

1st-Purple

2nd-Red

3rd-Green

4th-White

5th-Blue (5th Grade T-Shirt)

Remember to send in a water bottle, sunscreen (lotion/roll-on) and to wear sneakers/athletic wear. 

Due to space limitations we will not host spectators at Field Day.

Start summer vacation with a special treat! OHES is partnering with Taharka Brothers Icecream for a fundraiser that could raise $700 for Oak Hill! Visit here starting June 9th to place your order using coupon code OHES2023. Ice cream will be delivered to your home on Thursday, June 15th.

The 5th Grade vs Faculty Kickball Game will take place on Monday, June 5th 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!

The Lost & Found collection is quickly filling again after May's clean out. Although every effort is made to return those things that are labeled, most show no indication to whom they belong. The Lost & Found will be cleared out at the end of the school year, and anything unclaimed by June 13th will be donated to charity upon the conclusion of school.

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 2036 with more info about planned activities and dates!
