Grateful for our recent alumni gatherings in San Francisco and Santa Cruz that included recent Oak Grove alumni studying biology and political science, and those beyond their college years, pursuing careers in law and technology. It was so wonderful to catch up, and even more, how they connected with each other and the depth of our conversations. A special thanks to Brett `96 for taking the time to share his work at Joby Aviation!
We love to hear from OGS alumni! Reconnect by visiting: oakgroveschool.org/alumni to update your contact info. ❤️🦎

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! 🦎🚀❤️📚📚
