This week we want to focus on having fun and raising funds! Thank you to those of you who have signed up for our pick-a-dte fundraiser. We extended our onboarding window to boost participation, so it will go live Monday at noon. Our goal is $30 per student to assist with field trip costs, Oiler Drop raffles and rewards, classroom supplies and other opportunities for our students and teachers.

This week we wrap up our October CKH focus on self-direction and our student council has planned a fall spirit week for us - see below for details. They also have prepared goodie bags for daily Oiler Drop winners. We look forward to a good week that wraps up with an Oiler Drop Day, celebrating lots of great TEAM behavior in action.

THIS WEEK'S LAUNCH: "Your future self is built by the choices you current self makes today"

Small steps lead to big gains. Every day a student attends school supports learning, relationships, and long-term success.

Let’s Show Your Oiler Pride and Strive for Five — because every day counts.

Meal planning just got a whole lot easier!

We’re excited to announce that our district is switching to a new electronic menu program! You can now easily view daily meal offerings, check nutritional details, and filter for allergies directly from your phone or computer.

What you’ll love about the new system:

• Real-time updates: Always see the most up-to-date breakfast and lunch options.

• Allergen & dietary filters: Quickly check ingredients to keep your kids safe and healthy.

• Convenient access: View menus anytime, anywhere.
