A Gift for the Future: OCESD’s America’s 250th Time Capsule!

Last Wednesday, July 1st, the OCESD community came together to celebrate a massive milestone—America’s 250th anniversary! But we didn't just look back at history; we decided to make some history of our own.

To honor Semiquincentennial, our incredible students, teachers, and staff put together a special OCESD Time Capsule! 📦✨ Inside, we’ve packed letters, school memories, photos, and artifacts that capture what life is like in our district right now in 2026.

The catch? It stays sealed for the next 50 years! 🔒

This capsule will remain safely tucked away until the United States celebrates its 300th anniversary in 2076. Imagine what the world will look like when the students of the future finally crack it open! 🚀

Thank you to everyone who contributed a piece of today for the generations of tomorrow. We are so proud of our history, our present, and our future here at OCESD!

❤️ Important Support Reminder for Our OCESD Families ❤️

If your student is navigating a difficult loss or going through a tough time, please know that you are not alone. OCESD is offering grief support today for any students in need.

We have set up several support and activity stations at the gym, designed to give students safe, gentle, and hands-on ways to process their feelings at their own pace:

1️⃣ Expression & Legacy: A space to write letters, record a favorite memory for a community chain, or use the safe box to let the words go.

2️⃣ Grounding & Sensory: Tools to reset and find calm, including kinetic sand, smooth stones, fidgets, and breathing exercises.

3️⃣ Mindful Coloring: A quiet space to pick a color, focus on a pattern, and let the mind rest.

4️⃣ Sanctuary & Release: A safe space to just exist, reflect in silence, or write down heavy feelings and use the mini paper shredder to physically release them.

Details for today:

📍 Where: The Studios @ Central Gym

🕒 When: Right now until 3:00 PM today

👥 Who is available: School counselors, district social workers, and dedicated support staff are on-site and ready to listen, comfort, and help.

Please don't hesitate to stop by if your child needs a safe space, a listening ear, or a quiet place to express themselves. We are here for you.

🚌✨ 6th Grade Takes on SF! ✨🌉

Yesterday, our Studios @ Central 6th graders had an absolute blast on their field trip to San Francisco! The adventure started early with a cozy, fun ride on our charter buses 🚌 before we hopped on the ferry ⛴️ to head over to Alcatraz Island! The students did an amazing job tuning into the audio tour and learning all about the island's fascinating history. 🎧🔒

After exploring the Rock, it was time for some classic SF eats! We headed over to Boudin Bakery for a wonderful sit-down lunch 🥖🥗, and then walked over to Ghirardelli Square to treat ourselves to some world-famous, delicious desserts! 🍦🍫

Many of our students shared that this was their very first time visiting the City, and they were completely in awe of the fast-paced city life! 🥰 One of the best highlights of the day? The absolute eruption of claps and cheers as our buses drove across the iconic Golden Gate Bridge! 🌉🙌

This was definitely a field trip that will go down as a core memory for everyone involved! 🧠❤️

A massive THANK YOU to our incredible parent and staff chaperones who helped keep everyone safe and smiling all day long. We couldn't have done it without you! 👏

🌟 Celebrating Excellence in Special Education! 🌟

Last night was a truly inspiring evening as the Community Advisory Committee (CAC) hosted its annual awards ceremony. We are incredibly proud to announce that 10 outstanding students from the Oroville City Elementary School District were recognized and honored!

The CAC plays a vital role in our community, serving in an advisory capacity to the Special Education Local Plan Area (SELPA) to ensure our students have the support and resources they need to thrive. Seeing these students recognized for their hard work, resilience, and achievements is a testament to the strength of our schools and families.
