9/6-9/10

Dear Blue Oaks Families, 

I hope you had a nice and relaxing weekend. I am so happy we are entering the Fall season! Our students have been able to take advantage of the cooler days and have eaten outside. They really like to have a picnic lunch.  The dance-a-thon was a huge success. Thank you for all your help and support in making this fundraiser an outstanding opportunity for our school.  In the upcoming weeks, our library will be opening and know that will be exciting for our students. 

As always, please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. 

Thank you, 

Mrs. Cumbra

PTC

Please show your support and join our PTC.  Our Parent Teacher Club is an outstanding group that organizes many events at Blue Oaks.  The school wouldn't be what it is without this team! For more information, click on the link.  They have many events and some are happening very soon! Please read below on some of the events:

  • Yearbook Photos 2021-2022 
    It is already time to start sending in pictures to commemorate all of the amazing things your student is doing this school year. Please take a moment to upload pictures from the first day of school and the Dance-a-thon. It would be so helpful if you could name the picture files for me, for example “Johnny Dancing” or “4th Grade 1st Day” or “Tommy 3rd Grade” all of these little pieces of information help us when it comes time for us to layout the yearbook. When you follow the link to upload pictures, you will be asked for your email address. It is just part of the Google dropbox process. Thank you all so much! I look forward to seeing all of your wonderful pictures.

We request that you walk your child/children to school whenever possible to cut down on traffic and pollution, promote healthy life habits and enhance the safety of all.








Mindy Corr 
She has been doing it all! She's going above and beyond the TOSA description. She's filling in where needed (lunch duty, picture day helper, CPI expert), giving students who need a little extra attention some individual time with her, and helping out teachers with individual assessments. Not to mention the occasional recess duty relief! She's doing a great job helping everyone during this crazy start of the school year. Hopefully things will calm down, we'll get all our assessments done, and she can have a normal predictable schedule working with our kiddos. Great job riding the crazy first month of school wave Mindy!
