Dear Blue Oaks Bear Families,
We have had a great first full week of school! Thank you for attending Back to School Night. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child's teacher. We have had many new faces join Blue Oaks and we are very excited our school keeps growing. It has been great having the opportunity to meet many of you during pick up and drop off, and Back to School Night. Please continue to come and introduce yourself to me! I would love to meet you all! I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know all our students and visit them while they are learning in their classrooms, in the Bear's Lair or playing on the playground.
I know this school year will be a great one!

Masks: Thank you for all of your support with mask-wearing. Students and teachers are expected to wear masks while indoors in the classroom. We have extras and will provide one if a child doesn't have one. At this time, students do not need to wear them while outside.
Hand washing and Sanitizing: Students are strongly encouraged to wash hands throughout the day and if they are unable to wash, they can use hand sanitizer.
Visitors on Campus: Please check in at the office. Volunteers are welcome. We will be scheduling a fingerprinting event soon.
