The Oxford Village started a construction project on Moyers Street in the village last Wednesday, which will last 6-8 weeks. Moyers St is closed. Many parents use Moyers Street during arrival and dismissal each morning and afternoon. Attached is a map from the Oxford Village Manager showing the route that should be used to get between those two schools. Even the intersection of Hovey St and Moyers St. will be impacted and at times closed due to trenching and installation of underground infrastructure. There will be no left turn out of the parking lot at DA. Also, please do not park on Mechanic St. We will need Mechanic St. to be wide open for 2 way traffic. We will monitor the traffic flow with our Oxford Village Police Department this week and next. We will communicate any changes that may be needed to improve traffic flow. Thank you for your patience with the Moyers Street construction project.

Boa noite, famílias DA, Abaixo, segue o formulário de dispensa que precisaremos preencher para todos os alunos do DA até terça-feira à noite. Usaremos as informações fornecidas para informar nossos professores e funcionários sobre como seu filho chegará em casa todos os dias. É importante que tenhamos essas informações até terça-feira, 19 de agosto de 2025, para que tenhamos tempo de processá-las de uma forma que nossos professores possam usar. As informações sobre o ônibus do seu filho estarão disponíveis no Powerschool a partir de segunda-feira. Você precisará das informações sobre o ônibus do seu filho para preencher o formulário. Para a segurança dos alunos, é importante que tenhamos informações claras e consistentes sobre como cada aluno será dispensado da escola a cada dia. Um horário irregular pode ser confuso para alunos e funcionários.    Ao longo do ano letivo, caso precise fazer uma alteração pontual, preencha e envie um formulário de alteração de dispensa quando essa data chegar (cada criança receberá um bloco amarelo com os formulários de dispensa no primeiro dia). Você também pode ligar para a secretaria caso o procedimento de dispensa do seu filho precise ser alterado devido a circunstâncias especiais que ocorram durante o dia letivo. Nesses casos, ligue para a secretaria até as 15h. Caso seu filho tenha algum procedimento especial para dispensa no primeiro dia de aula, envie essas instruções por e-mail ao professor. O horário fornecido no formulário abaixo deve ser o horário regular do ano letivo.

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

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!
