Ahead of this year’s Day of Reading, our annual student-led fundraiser that celebrates a love of books while supporting meaningful causes, Oak Grove students cast their ballots to choose a local nonprofit to support. Through this student vote, they selected the Ojai Raptor Center @ojairaptorcenter, directing 20% of the funds they raise to the organization and its work rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing injured and orphaned birds of prey. ❤️🦅
By voting to support the Ojai Raptor Center, students are extending the spirit of Day of Reading beyond campus—demonstrating civic engagement, environmental stewardship, and thoughtful giving in action. We’re looking forward to another successful Day of Reading and the positive impact it will have on both our classrooms and the broader Ojai community.
The Day of Reading campaign will launch on February 2 and culminate on the official Day of Reading on Friday, February 13. On that day, students come to school in their pajamas with a favorite book and stuffy to spend the day immersed in reading and storytelling! 🦎🚀❤️📚📚

As part of our Parent Ed series, Dr. Sara Marnell and Dr. Allie Binkowski facilitated a timely talk entitled "Data to Dialogue: Shining a light on youth mental health and discussing ways to support families and children in our modern tech culture." They shared evidence-based data and cautionary stories from the frontlines. In addition to specific professional recommendations, they shared helpful parenting hacks and ways in which we can better protect our children in the online world. We hope anyone attending felt better informed, connected, and supported. Thank you to Sara and Allie and all who were able to take part in this important discussion!
