Dear Lakeville Families,
We’ve had a wonderful start to the school year, and I’m excited to share some important information with you. On November 4, two Oxford Community Schools proposals will appear on the ballot. These proposals help support our students, classrooms, and school facilities.
Non-Homestead Operating Millage – Helps fund day-to-day operations, including classrooms, programs, and instruction. This millage applies only to non-homestead properties (commercial, rental, and second homes) and does not increase taxes for primary homeowners.
Sinking Fund Millage – Provides funding for building maintenance, safety upgrades, and facility improvements that benefit students and the community. View this flyer outlining tentative projects planned for the first year of the Sinking Fund at our school.
I’d like to encourage all families to review the attached flyer and learn more about these proposals. Additional information is available on the district website at https://www.oxfordschools.org/millage.
Thank you for staying informed and for all you do to support our students and school community!
Sincerely,
Kristin Guinn, Principal
Lakeville Elementary

Dear Wildcat Families:
Welcome back to another exciting school year! We hope your summer has been restful and filled with great memories. As we prepare for a strong start to the 2025–2026 academic year, we are excited to once again gather as a community to support our students both in the classroom and beyond, including under the Friday night lights!
Oxford High School’s football games have long been a point of pride and tradition in our community. To ensure this experience continues to be safe, welcoming, and enjoyable for all, we are implementing a few important changes this season. These updates are based on feedback from families, staff, and public safety partners, and align with best practices being adopted across the region.
Updates and Reminders for the 2025-2026 School Year:
No Re-Entry to the Stadium.
All Oxford High School students must have a school ID for entry. Showing PowerSchool schedule is allowed.
Expect to go through the Evolv weapons detection system for entry.
Students: No bags of any kind will be allowed for students.
No outside footballs or sporting equipment.
Middle School and Elementary aged children are to be accompanied, supervised by, and in the vicinity of an adult.
Our ticket workers will not allow unsupervised students to enter into the stadium.
If there are issues with accompanied students gathering and causing unsafe issues, parents will be contacted and the students will be barred for the rest of the season.
Adults: No backpacks or large bags. Small purses, diaper bags, and medical bags are permissible and are subject to search.
No outside food or beverages are allowed into the stadium. This includes empty or filled bottles, cups, thermos containers, coolers, mugs, etc.
Oxford Community Schools prohibits the possession and/or use of drugs, alcohol, tobacco, and weapons while on school property and at any district related event. Please see Policies 3102.01 and 3408.01 for more information.
Alcohol is strictly prohibited; anyone who attempts to bring alcohol and/or is visibly under the influence of any substance will be removed for the rest of the season.
All school rules and district policies are in effect and will be enforced for this event.
We remain committed to providing our students, families, and community members with an enjoyable game-day experience that reflects the values of Oxford Community Schools. Your partnership is key in making that possible. Should there be anything we can do to assist you or your student, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Let’s have a safe, spirited, and successful season. Go Wildcats!
Sincerely,
Tony DeMare, Athletic Director, Oxford Community Schools
