Welcome!
A special welcome to all of our new students and their families. We're off to a great start with over 40 new students and kindergarteners for a total of 352 students (K to 5th grade) enrolled at Oatville. The Pre-K classes are still enrolling and their first day will be next Tuesday, Aug. 24th. We have several new staff members this year. Please welcome Mrs. Jamie Engstrand, our new counselor, and Mrs. Eryn Cunningham, first grade and Meghan Hummer, Pre-K teacher. The staff is here to provide the best that we can for your child; teaching them academic basics, social skills, self-discipline, and a zest for learning. Also, please be sure the office, health room, and your child's teacher have your current phone numbers and email address.
