Don’t worry, I’m not going to list 2009 reasons that I believe the year 2009 is going to be great for OCS. However, I am pretty excited. In fact, it doesn’t take many vacation days for me to get rested up and begin the anticipation of the first school day in January. There’s something exciting about coming back, seeing all of your friends and trudging through the Michigan winter together.
For the next few months, the pace at Oakland Christian School will be fast and continuous. There are so many wonderful things happening. Eighty-eight students and parents will be leaving Friday night, January 16 to travel to Washington, D.C. during the time of the Presidential Inauguration. It will be a historic time for these students to witness an event of such magnitude.
The OCS Early Education through fifth grade teachers will receive professional development training in the Orton-Gillingham reading method. This instructional method will provide an even stronger foundation to the reading program OCS offers.
Our middle schoolers will be planning for their middle school retreat, a special Euchre night in February, atheltics, drama, fine arts, spelling bee, and on and on…
It’s an exciting time to be apart of OCS. I will continue to use this space to share with you special stories of what is happening with our students.
