Attention! On Thursday, April 2 at 10:00am, Oakwood ISD will join other city, county, and local emergency management programs in participating in a statewide drill of local emergency alerting systems. This will just be a drill and no action is required.

The drill will be conducted using the Oakwood ISD emergency notification system and parents of students who are enrolled in Oakwood should receive an emergency message on their phones around 10:30 am on Thursday. Once again this is just a drill, and no action is required. We will remind people in the message that is sent out.

Thank you!

ALL EYES ON STATE Good luck to Aubrey Crowder as she competes at the State Powerlifting Meet today! Let’s go !! #OakwoodPanthers #StateBound #Powerlifting #GirlsWhoLift

Theatre is about SO much more than the contest. Here is Covington's and Oakwood's companies who BOTH competed (AND advanced) with the same show, Cicada, coming together afterwards and pairing up with their counterparts. These kids probably won't remember the trophies, who won or lost....but they will remember the connections they made: with their teammates, directors, and new friends from other schools. Wonderful human beings creating Theatre Magic, and telling important stories. 💚🎭💚

The UIL One Act Play is the UIL Varsity competition for Theatre in Texas. Just like sports teams prepare and play for a District Championship, Theatre prepares plays as our "scrimmages" or "Off season" during the year, training actors, technicians and supporters for the rigorous SPRING UIL ONE ACT PLAY! The company of students compete in the 1A division where there are approximately 250 schools competing and advance through District (3 out of 4 advance) , Bi-District (3 out of 5 advance), Area (3 out of 6 advance), Region (2 out of 6 advance), all the way up to the State Championships in Austin (there are 8 schools at state.) From a 7 minute set up time, to the 40 minute maximum allowed for performances, students manage a formidable set of rules for this game, while telling meaningful stories that help shape our world.

Mental Health Monday: This is a good reminder that mental health is important and crucial for academic and social/emotional success. Please reach out to someone if you are struggling. There is no stigma or judgment for caring about your mental well-being. Reach out to me or another trusted adult at any time. We are here for you. -- Miss Olive
