Leadership is not about having power over others, and it definitely isn’t about telling people what to do. Being a leader means caring about the people you’re leading and focusing on their success more than your own. #edchat

🦋 Butterfly Watch! 🐛 Our classrooms released their butterflies this week in our @oakschool181 butterfly garden. The children were so excited to get a closer look at them before watching them fly away. We are officially butterfly experts!

Awesome evening! So amazed by the spelling abilities of our D181 students. We had 18 rock stars at tonight's district spelling bee! Couldn't be more #D181Proud. Congratulations to all who participated! A special shout-out to Mrs. Grippando, our amazing announcer. 🙌🎉🤩

As we enter winter break we wanted to showcase our classrooms’ end of study celebration of trees! 🌲🌲 Our families took time to create an ornament that reflected their holiday traditions. We hope you have a safe and healthy holiday season.

We had a spectacular turn out for popsicles on the playground. We loved that the families could see their children interacting with their new school friends and that families could start making their own connections. Here’s to a great year!
