Dear Oak Ridge R-6 Families,

I can't believe we are already enjoying the last days of July! Enclosed you will find some basic back to school information to help you plan. Each building principal will send out specific information for each building in the coming week.

If you need help with resources for your family, please let me know. We have access to many resources to help families in need. Students learn best when their essential needs are being met. As always, contact me if you have any questions or concerns. We are here to help!

Enjoy the rest of summer break!

Sincerely,

Dr. Sonia Wood

Oak Ridge R-6
