Prior to Christmas Break, some Oakesdale students along with Mr. Strong attended the VFW Essay Contest awards ceremony. While we have not yet been provided a full list of essay contest winners, the parents who attended, along with Mr. Strong have stated that "Oakesdale cleaned up" when it came to receiving awards. We are proud to participate in this contest each year and always have great success. It is an honor to be invited to participate.
We do congratulate Eva Dickinson, Clara Baker, and Havilah Arroyo who were in attendance at the ceremony; we also know that Mrs. Warwick is also receiving an award, as is the Oakesdale School District. There will be a special assembly in the near future to recognize all our award winners and at that time, complete recognition with all names, awards, and photos will be posted. Congrats to all our students who participated! #NighthawkProud

Hello to our Senior Citizens who enjoy lunch every Wednesday. There is an error in the Hawk Tawk being mailed today. The correct information is that begining on December 10th, all senior lunches must be paid for, it is no longer by donation. The cost is $5.14 per lunch. This is due to the Council on Aging losing their funding. Please spread the word. Thank you.

For students in grades Pk-6.
Thursday, December 4th from 5-7pm in the cafeteria.

A few reminders about this week:
*School is dismissed at noon for everyone; the preschool students will ride the buses at noon, so they will have recess and leave with everyone else each day this week.
*All students need to leave when school is out. Students can only be here for their conference and if they have a practice. In those two events, they are not to be roaming the hallways. We do not have supervision for students to hang out anywhere on the school grounds once school is dismissed.
*The Scholastic Book Fair is happening in Room 3 this week. Please stop by and do some shopping.
Looking forward to a great week. Dr. D
