Principal's Update
Oak Prairie received some news to celebrate last week! We are designated by the state as an EXEMPLARY SCHOOL. This designation is only awarded to the top 10% of performing schools in the state. We are so proud to be recognized for the hard work of our students, and the impactful instruction of our teaching staff.
This month we will focus our efforts on being impactful citizens and community members. One way we will do this is by recognizing and supporting our troops. If you are willing, we would love to have you share a picture of those in your family who have served or are serving in the military. They will be recognized at our Veterans Day Assembly this week and pictures will be displayed this month on our cafeteria wall. Please email photos to kpaulin@d92.org.
We are also joining with other D92 schools in Operation Support Our Troops - America donation drive. Please see the flyer below for more information about how you can help support the morale and well-being of our troops.
Parent Teacher Conference sign-up is open and will remain open until Nov. 16th. I encourage you to sign-up early, as Oak Prairie has a limited number of slots available and slots fill quickly. You can sign up at Meet the Teacher.
Coming in November and December are presentations about Erin's Law. Please see this letter about the Parent Presentation on November 15th and the opt out option available for students.
