Our Spanish Oaks SPED Team was pleased to attend The Learning Edge Conference together ...  "Growing the Minds of All" was the focus, with speakers presenting ideas on growth mindset, meeting the needs of gifted and talented students, the powerful tool of story, etc.  It was a wonderful team building opportunity and we are grateful for the day spent learning alongside each other.

Submitted by kali.brown on

Thank you to everyone who browsed our PTA Book Fair last month.  The fair was a huge success!  In addition to getting great books into students' hands, the PTA was able to purchase $1200 in new books for our very own school library, and buy over 100 books to give away FREE to students at our reading assemblies.  A big 'thank you' to Spanish Oaks parents for promoting reading in our school!

An audience full of respect and appreciation met the Veterans of our community as they entered our school today.  We are deeply indebted for the sacrifices they, and many others, have made to ensure that we can enjoy life as we know it.  Our choir and our 5th Grade both performed beautifully, and we enjoyed a slide show put together by Mrs. Brown of all the relatives of students, faculty and staff that are Veterans.  Thank you, Veterans!
