Have a wonderful week!

Our Oak Crest PTA president, Danielle Bennett, applied for a national grant for coffee. She received the grant, which was very competitive, beating people nationwide. She received 5,000 cases of coffee pods. There is more than enough for our staff in the teachers' lounge and she was able to share cases of coffee with every elementary site in BA! We are so blessed to have such an amazing PTA! If you see a PTA board member, or would like to reach out to thank them, their email is ocptaba@gmail.com.

We will have Freckles Friday on January 23rd and 30th! Freckles cost just $3 and your child will get to pick from a variety of ice cream choices. Money is due by noon on the Tuesday of each Freckles Friday week.
