A New School Year Begins!

After a busy summer of campus projects, several weeks of teacher in-service, and a community work day last Saturday on campus, today was students’ official first day of school!

There were hops and skips and hugs and high-fives all around as we said hello to our returning students and welcomed our new incoming students.

It’s great to see our campus come alive again with our Oak Grove families’ energy, and we’re beyond excited to get this new school year started.
