This week is National Substitute Appreciation Week, and we would love to give a shout out to our full time substitute, Lisa Dwornicki! This gal has endless energy, a love for all kids, and is a very hard worker. Thanks for being a wonderful role model for our students! We are lucky to have you at Oak Street!


Happy Friday before this fun three day weekend! The kids are excited to have a small break, even though we all felt like we just got back to school.
These winners are smiling and happy because they won their own Silly Putty. These vintage treasures are still around and the kids were super excited about them! Congratulations to this group for earning a Tiger Ticket and for being a lucky winner this week. We are proud of you for showing your Tiger Traits!
Have a great weekend and be safe!



As a reminder, all schools and district offices will be closed on Monday, Sept. 4th in honor of Labor Day. We hope everyone has a safe time celebrating this holiday weekend!

A huge thank you to Captain Phelps for coming to visit our classroom and being our very first mystery reader of the semester. We got to read a book about lockdown drills and learn about what’s on Captain Carrie’s duty belt. Thank you for visiting our class 🤍

Happy 2nd Monday of the school year. We have our newest administrative assistant, Mandi Bega, posing for Motivational Monday. She and Jennifer have done an amazing job getting this school year started on a positive note. We appreciate them so much!
Her shirt today reminds students that "we can do hard things". Mandi has worked in the schools for many years, and she knows just the right statements that can motivate our students. This is absolutely one of them! Oak Street is wishing everyone the best day! Thanks again to Mandi for sharing.


The students are so beyond excited to learn about and how to play guitars!!








Welcome back to the first Tiger Ticket Drawing of the school year! Do I hear lots of cheering out there?!? These students were caught showing their tiger traits, and were rewarded for it with at least one earned ticket! Our drawing and earning tickets is part of our school wide behavior incentive program funded by PTO. We focus on three main character traits: respect, responsibility and perseverance.
Congratulations to these Oak Street tigers! I know they will all enjoy their Dog Man Card game. You may be hungry for a hotdog after playing this game with the family!

The Goddard Lions Club does so many things to impact the community and
impact our students. Most recently they graciously made a donation to
new teachers. With this donation, Ms. Burr purchased supplies, new
books, and learning tools for her students to use this school year.
This morning, those students made thank you notes and affirmations to
thank the Goddard Lions Club for that donation and all the other
wonderful things they do to support our community. 🩵💙







Yellow day fun in first grade!





Having fun reading to some friends during quiet reading time!
