Interim reports will go home with students on Tuesday, September 22. Please take a few minutes to review your child’s progress.
Then, on Friday, September 25, we’re celebrating Dolly Day! Students and staff are encouraged to dress in their best Dolly-inspired attire—pink, sparkles, country style, big hair, or anything fun!
At 9:25, our entire school will Drop Everything and Read to celebrate Dolly Parton’s love of reading.
We’re looking forward to another great week at Oak Hill. Bulldogs United!ogs United!

We are excited to celebrate Grandparents Week on Monday and Tuesday! We look forward to welcoming our Bulldog grandparents to campus and sharing this special time with them.
Monday: Kindergarten, 1st Grade, and 3rd Grade Grandparents
Tuesday: 2nd Grade, 4th Grade, and 5th Grade Grandparents
Grandparent lunches are $5.00 each. Please bring exact change to help us keep the lunch line moving smoothly.
We are also continuing to work hard to make our afternoon car rider line as efficient as possible. Please remember to display your student’s name tag where it can be easily seen. This allows our staff to quickly identify students and helps keep the line moving safely and efficiently.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Let’s have another great week at Oak Hill Elementary!
Bulldogs United,
