Spanish Oaks Elementary has the BEST custodian ever! Mr. Billie can be found cleaning the snow off teachers' cars after school many an afternoon. He can be found at all times making sure the school grounds are clean and safe for all who come to Spanish Oaks. What a great guy ... we are so lucky to have him! Thank you, Mr. Billie!
If you have 1,732,378 minutes, does it always go with cool music? Loud cheers? Over 100 books AND 6 brand new bikes given away? It does if they are reading minutes at Spanish Oaks Elementary!!! Mrs. Brown rocked the school, with the help of Mr. Crockett providing the tunes, at our March "Race into Reading" Assembly. Spanish Oaks children read, read and read ... and the minutes prove it! So does the love of reading that the children here have developed! Keep up the great work and READ READ READ!

Our amazing second grade students at Spanish Oaks treated the whole school, and their famlies, to a fun-filled, totally unique program ... The show featured songs from Frozen, Lilo and Stitch, and Toy Story, along with a completely original rendition of The Gingerbread Man. These talented performers brought the house down with their very own depiction of, "What Does the Fox Say?" Well done, second grade! We laughed until we cried and clapped until our hands hurt!
