Friday morning, Mr. Sheen worked with his students through some apology scenarios, as well as discussed classroom/schoolwide expectations. Our school photographer enjoyed stories that Mr. Sheen told from his childhood experience about apologizing. Thank you Mr. Sheen for building relationships with every student that walks through your door. We love that you are at Oregon Trail! Classroom Photo Credit: Oregon Trail Photographer, Barsa

Thank you to our parents!


Ms. Blair started off her morning with classroom expectations, a morning song, and alphabet practice. A 5th Grader reported that "Ms. Blair teaches the ABC sounds and letters in a creative way through songs and sign language". Thank you Ms. Blair for creating a fun classroom environment. We are so lucky to have you at OT! Photo Credit: Oregon Trail's Student Photographer, Barsa


Week two was full of expectations, accidental matching, math multiples, alphabet sign language, pep talks with the vice principal, games, and so much more. We will see you Tuesday!

At Oregon Trail, we celebrate students engaging in appropriate behavior through our Caught Being "Paws"itive Tickets. Students names are announced over the intercom the next morning by our amazing music teacher, Mrs. Phillips. We also graph the number of tickets so students can see schoolwide success. There is a weekly drawing for a prize that students get to pick out from the office and there is an even bigger drawing at our monthly assemblies. Ask your child about our Caught Being "Paws"itive Tickets!



Attention parent! If your child rides the school bus, please download the My Ride K-12 App to view your student's busing information. Thank you!
