We are looking for anecdotal Oakwood history...if you've got a story from your own Oakwood years, post it under the blog below! Please be sure to include your name and years associated with Oakwood. For instance, if you attended Oakwood in the seventies, sign your post "Jane Doe, Oakwood student 1977-1983."

Thank you! Enjoy!

We are looking for memorabilia from years past. Have any spirit wear? Newsletters? Photos? Yearbooks? The committee is looking for items to include in our Decade Displays for the Community Open House and All-school Reunion.

All donated items will be tagged and taken very good care of, and everything will be returned!
