Principals' Message

Hello White Oaks Community,

We hope everyone had a wonderful extended Memorial Day weekend filled with fun, rest, and relaxation! Looking ahead to next week, our PTA has organized some exciting events for our students. On Thursday, we will host an engaging school assembly. Then on Friday, we are thrilled to finally host the Recess Dance Party that students earned by meeting our PTA membership goal.

Have a great weekend!
