Hello Oak Grove Parents/Guardians,
I am very excited to share that our district is now a part of the Community Engagement Initiative (CEI). Our team will work together to help implement ways that will help build a stronger school and home connection and community. Meet the CEI initiative leadership team: Mrs. Aguilar (Social worker), Ms. Buzby (English Teacher), Mr. Andrus (Parent), M. Andrus (Student) and myself.
