PTO Information & Happenings
Make Your Voice Heard!
Are you guilty of ignoring all those messages about the District's Strategic Plan? The elementary schools are often overlooked by the district when making plans and distributing resources. Their strategic plan affects the next FIVE years worth of your children’s education - make your voice heard! Watch this video and then fill out the survey today! Find the original SOS message here. Holidays for the Children
For many years, it has been an OSS tradition to support children in need through a “Holidays for the Children” program. This year, we have partnered again with Homeless Solutions, Inc. (HSI) in Morris County to provide gifts to children in HSI shelters and transitional housing, as well as to those whose families recently graduated from the HSI program. Please send your child’s donation to school in an envelope marked for “Holidays for the Children” by Thursday, November 21. If you are willing to volunteer to shop for the items, please contact your class parent(s). Holiday Boutique Starts December 5th!
The OSS Holiday Boutique is back! Students look forward to this annual fundraiser, during which they get to shop in-school for presents for their family and friends. The Boutique will run from Thurs, Dec 5th - Tues, Dec 10th. Click here to volunteer, and here to see the class shopping schedule. Holiday Recognition Cakes are Back!
Calling all bakers to participate in a long-standing Oak Street tradition: Holiday Recognition Cakes. We need your help to bake a cake for every person in our OSS community - from the teachers and staff, to the crossing-guards and delivery drivers. If you can make a cake from a box mix, you can be a Holiday Recognition baker. See the attached flyer for details or click here to sign up. Not a baker? Sign up to help collect and package cakes! Winter Arty Party
Do you love art class? Come make more art with Mrs. Tolentino at Oak Street school afterschool! Make friends while having fun and learning. Class fills quickly. Click here for more information and to register your child. 
Get Involved
Volunteer Training - To volunteer in the building during school hours, parents must complete the 24-25 Annual OSS Volunteer Responsibility Agreement.
Beautification Committee - Some staff members and teachers at OSS have started a Beautification Committee to make improvements in the school building. They may need volunteers throughout the year for different projects at school. If you're interested in being involved, please contact our PTO liaison to the committee, Erica Bell at [email protected]. Welcome New OSS Families!
If you are new to the OSS Community please email [email protected] so we can welcome you and add you to our school AtoZ Directory.
