Dear Parents/Guardians:
I pray that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday. Thank you for your generosity in donating nonperishable items that will be sent to Jamaica to help support the victims of Hurricane Melissa. I would also like to extend my appreciation to the Home & School Association for sponsoring our first-ever movie night at Oakview. Those who were in attendance had a wonderful time.
