First Day of School, 2024

And we’re back at school! Our campus became alive with excitement today as we said hello to our returning students and warmly welcomed the new faces joining us this year. From joyful skips to heartfelt hugs, and high-fives flying everywhere, it was wonderful to see our Oak Grove family’s energy light up our campus once more! We’re so grateful to embark on this new school year together as a community and can’t wait to see what it holds in store for us.

A few pics from our recent 7th and 8th-grade trip to Wyoming`s Teton Science School @tetonnationalpark . Guided by the amazing staff @tetonscience , students and chaperones use cross-country skis, snowshoes, vans, and even a horse-drawn carriage to observe wildlife such as moose, elk, and bald eagles. As with outdoor education program across all grades, our annual field trip to the Teton Science Schools truly embodies the Art of Living and Learning. As one student noted: “During the trip I learned that you should always enter an activity with an open mind.”
