Principal's Corner
Greetings Oak View Families!
It was so great to see and meet so many of you at our Open House this past Wednesday evening. The feeling in our building was one of excitement and energy to start the new year!
With the new universal breakfast and lunch program this year, we have a new process for our breakfast. Beginning day 1, Tuesday, September 5th, all students will go their classrooms, put away their backpacks, etc., and go to breakfast as a class with their teacher. Being on time to school every day will be very important. This allows students to start the day with their classroom peers and teacher in a more formalized way. It will be a powerful way to start the day with a positive mindset and on track to be successful each day.
Breakfast begins promptly at 9:30 and will end at 10:00 am.
I am looking forward to your partnership this school year!
Ann Mock, Interim Principal

Volunteer Coordinator
The beginning of the school year is always the busiest in terms of our volunteer "needs". Right off the bat we will need help/volunteers for the Fun Run on September 29th. We are looking for volunteers to help with the day of tasks- set-up, take-down, pump-up the kids' team, etc. Be on the lookout for a Sign-Up Genius for these opportunities.
In order to volunteer at Oak View or any building in our district, you need to fill out a volunteer application. These applications expire after 1 year so a new one needs to be filled out every school year.
