Wow Oak Hill! What an incredibly successful Race for Education! Our school community raised over $26,000 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 Brooke Shivers, Fallon Wareham, Thomas Nagle, Jhena Sword, Kristie Kinslow, Lynn Larocca, Katie Blood, Jen Hannon, Lauren Wilusz, 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. It takes a village to make an event like this seem effortless. Oak Hill truly is a special community.

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! 

Save the Date! Field Day is planned for Friday, June 6th. Field Day is a great day where Oak Hill students can have fun, be physically active, and practice many skills they have learned throughout the year in Physical Education class.

Grades K-2 Field Day: 9am-11am
Grades 3-5 Field Day: 12:15pm-2:15pm

Each grade has a color theme this year (not mandatory, just for fun!)

• Kindergarten-Purple
• 1st Grade-Carolina Blue
• 2nd Grade-Hot Pink
• 3rd Grade-Lime Green
• 4th Grade-Red
• 5th Grade-Royal Blue

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.

The 5th Grade vs Faculty Kickball Game will take place on Monday, June 9th 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 final Lost & Found clean out will be on June 23rd. This will give families time to identify items that may not have come home and/or to spend time looking through the lost and found items the week after school ends. Please have your students check and claim items from the OHES lobby before they leave for the year. Items may also be claimed by contacting the Oak Hill main office during school hours. 

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 2038 with more info about planned activities and dates!
