4th Graders at OES were given materials to create circuits using the central idea that "knowledge and skill are built by trial and error." It was incredible to see their curiosity and determination in action! Great job investigating and problem solving, future scientists!🌟. #OCSWildcats #WorldclassWildcats

School social workers are the heart 💛 of our schools. They step in when students are struggling, providing support, resources, and hope when it’s needed most. Their impact is immeasurable—helping families navigate challenges, working alongside staff to remove barriers to learning, and being a trusted presence for students. To our school social workers: Thank you for your dedication, compassion, and unwavering commitment to our students. Your work changes lives, and we are beyond grateful for all you do! 👏. While last week was School Social Workers' Week, we appreciate you every day! #OCSWildcats #WorldclassWildcats

We are anticipating that all Oxford Community Schools will be in session tomorrow, but due to slippery road conditions, our buses will not be able to travel on dirt roads for pickups or drop-offs. If your child’s bus stop is on a dirt road, please make arrangements to transport them tomorrow to and from school if it is safe to do so. We are letting you know this evening to allow time for planning, and we appreciate your understanding. If you have questions in the morning, please contact the transportation department at (248) 969-1888.
