Parents,

We have been seeing an increase in the number of Oakdale Grade School students and staff who have to quarantine for testing positive for COVID, or for being a close contact to someone who has tested positive. It is our plan to stay with in-person learning, but if our COVID numbers increase, or we are not able to staff classrooms, we may consider moving to remote learning.

We will continue with our implementation of mitigation strategies, which include social distancing, proper use of face masks, frequent use of hand sanitizer, and disinfecting high touch areas. Hopefully, we will be able to stay in-person.

If you have children who are showing symptoms, have tested positive for COVID-19, or have been a close contact to someone who has tested positive, please call the school at 329-5292 and let us know. If you have any questions, you can call the school or send an email to cpeterson@oakdalegs.org.
​
Thank you!

​VIKING COUNCIL!!!
​Oakdale Grade School has created the "Viking Council". This is like a student council that any student in grade 5-8 may join. The focus of the Viking Council is to make Oakdale Grade School a better place to learn, make friends, and have fun! Viking Council meets once a week to decide what activities will be planned. Members of Viking Council will help younger kids know about the negative effects of bullying, by putting on skits or reading books to them. Other ideas include a tutoring program, school improvement, and helping out in the community. The 5th-8th grade students in Viking Council learn how to deal with bullies and what to do if someone is getting bullied. Oakdale Grade School was the recipient of a $500 grant offered by Tri-County Electric. This money will go towards Viking Council activities.
