Ready for an incredible school year? 🤩 Oakdale Heights Elementary is getting a major upgrade! 🚀

Our playgrounds are getting a brand-new makeover ✨, with new structures for both our younger and older students. But the excitement doesn't stop there. We're also expanding our programs to give our students more opportunities to learn and grow. 🌱

This year, your child can explore their creativity in visual arts 🎨 and our new monthly Affinity Club for multicultural learning. 🌍 We're also building young leaders through our Girls Leadership group 👑 and Student Council. 🗳️ And for students who love sports, we're launching a new soccer team! ⚽

Of course, we'll still have all our classic events, like the Winter Concert 🎤 and Spring Carnival 🎡, with plans to add a multicultural festival in the spring. 🎉 Plus, our fun after-school program is back! 🤸‍♂️

At Oakdale, we're dedicated to helping every child succeed. 💖 We teach reading using the proven Science of Reading principles 📖 and the SIPPS program.

A true hero in our midst! 🌟 Kasey Dahl was honored at yesterday's School Board meeting for her incredible, life-saving actions. When a colleague began choking, Kasey's quick thinking and knowledge of the Heimlich maneuver were the difference between a tragic accident and a life saved. 👏 Her heroic actions remind us all of the importance of knowing basic first aid. We're so proud to have heroes like Kasey in our community!
