Oakwood School Families,


It is hard to believe that the 2025-26 school year is coming to a close already- it feels like it just began! Yet- here we are winding down for the end of the year. For our fifth grade students it marks the end of their time as an elementary student and the beginning of their middle school years. We will miss them here at Oakwood! They will always be a part of the Oakwood school family- once an 🦅always an 🦅!!


It is also hard to believe my time as a Principal is coming to an end as well. I feel incredibly blessed for the years I have spent as the leader of the Oakwood School family. Getting to spend my day with your children and the staff has brought me many smiles and joy!


Just a few of the MANY thank yous I owe:

  • Thank you to all the students over the years and especially the current ones. You are ALL going to contribute to the world in amazing ways!

  • Thank you to the Oakwood Staff!! We have worked hard over the years ensuring our students are achieving! The hard work paid off this past year when we achieved the Significantly Exceeding Expectations status on our school report card.

  • Thank you to the Oakwood PTO! Your dedication to our school and the support you have provided me has been and continues to be incredible!

  • Thank you to the Oakwood families! Your investment and participation in your child(ren)’s education and school is what makes Oakwood - Oakwood!!

On behalf of the entire Oakwood school staff, we hope you all have a wonderful summer and get to spend lots of time together as families!


With much appreciation and wishing you ALL well always,

Mrs. Susan L Martin-Principal

To secure your child’s spot and ensure they are ready for the fall, please log in to your Infinite Campus Parent Portal beginning April 1 to register and verify your information.
