Oxford Elementary

Click here for some important District Updates as we head into the new school year!

Dear Elementary Families, 

I hope this finds you doing well and ready for a great school year! I know your children are eagerly anticipating the start of school and even more, eagerly waiting to hear who their classroom teacher will be for the 2025-2026 school year! 

Many of you have heard from your building principals that you can expect classroom and teacher placement on August 14, 2025. That was our original plan across all five elementary buildings.

However, due to many late or pending enrollments, we are asking for a little more time to carefully consider class lists and try to ensure more balanced classes. Therefore, we will delay sending out class placements until Friday, August 15, 2025. You should receive notice from your home school by the end of the day Friday.

We greatly appreciate their patience as we are working diligently to prepare for our most important stakeholders- your children and our students! 

Sincerely, 
Anita Qonja-Collins

Hi OES families! Please see your email to view our Welcome Back newsletter!

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news with our community! Thanks to the generosity of a private donor, Oxford High School will soon have a brand-new football field! We’re excited about the positive impact this gift will have for students across multiple activities.

This incredible gift will cover the full cost of the field replacement, which means no district funds will be used for this project. The new turf will proudly remain our signature Wildcat blue, and this donation reflects a shared commitment to enhancing student experiences whenever possible without additional cost to our taxpayers.

Construction will begin right away. Our Athletic Director, Tony DeMare, is coordinating closely with coaches to ensure that practices and scheduling remain uninterrupted throughout the process. We are hopeful that the new field will be ready in time for our first home football game on August 29, but there is a chance the work may not be completed by then. If a location change is necessary, we’ll communicate those details with families as soon as possible.

We’re incredibly grateful for this generous investment in our students, our programs, and our district. Thank you for your continued support; we can’t wait to see our Wildcats take the field this fall!

🍕🌳 Pizza in the Park was a huge success at OES this summer! Our Wildcat families came together for fun, laughter, and delicious pizza. Everyone had the chance to meet our new principal, Mrs. Murphy! Thanks to everyone, especially the OES/DA PTO, who joined us and made it such a memorable evening. 🐾💙

Dear Families and Staff,

We want to let you know that there will be fire alarm testing at Oxford Elementary School on Thursday, July 17, and Friday, July 18, beginning between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m. each day.

These are only tests, and no evacuation will be required. However, the alarms will sound throughout the building as part of the routine system checks.

If you or your child will be at Oxford Elementary for breakfast or attending the OELC Summer Camp on either of those days, please be prepared for the brief noise and activity during the testing period.

Sincerely,
Oxford Community Schools
