Faculty dress in purple to celebrate military youth

Celebrating Our Military Families

We had a wonderful morning celebrating our military-connected students and their families at our Purple Up! Breakfast this week. It was a heartwarming start to the day as we recognized the resilience and unique experiences of our military youth during the Month of the Military Child.

To our military families: Thank you for your service and for being such an integral part of our school family!

SOL Support

Spring testing season is here!  Be sure to put testing dates on your family calendar. You can find them on our Oak View Testing site.

Here are some ways to prepare before a test:

  • Remind your child to get a good night's rest.
  • Make sure your child has a healthy breakfast.
  • Avoid scheduling appointments that would take your child out of school on a testing day.
  • Remind your child that electronic devices are not allowed in testing, unless required by 504 or IEP.

Learn more about how to support your child and why test participation matters.
