Author Leah Henderson visiting in March
Author Leah Henderson will be visiting students in grades 3-6 on March 17. If you would like to purchase her books, please order through Bookworm Central. Books will be delivered to Oak View and will be signed by the author. The deadline to order is March 1. If you have questions, please feel free to email Mrs. Atkins.
Ramadan Observation and Meal Kits
If your student is observing Ramadan during school hours, please fill out this Ramadan Participation Questionnaire so we can coordinate on both a prayer schedule and a lunch alternative location for them, if needed.
From February 18 to March 19, students who are fasting during the day can take school meals home. These kits include one breakfast and one lunch to be eaten after the school day ends. Visit the Food and Nutrition webpage for forms, deadlines, and other information.
