Dear Oak Ridge Families,


Fourth and fifth grade students will attend a field trip on May 11th to visit the Cape County Courthouse, Archive Center, Historical Center, and the Cape County Nature Center. This field trip is for students only due to space limitations on our tours and our educational presentations. We will pack sack lunches for students. Please get permission slips turned in as soon as possible.


We officially have 9 days of school left for this school year with several events still planned. Check out the upcoming events section of this newsletter to plan accordingly.


Thank you for your support during MAP testing! We have been able to get MAP testing completed!


Don't forget to purchase your 22-23 yearbook!


We are winding down the year. Please pay lunch bills, before/after school care bills, early childhood bills, or any other fees as soon as possible.


Have a restful weekend with family!

Sincerely,

Sonia Wood
