MESSAGE FROM THE ALUMNI COORDINATOR
Please keep up with us on Social Media. We love to share what our amazing Alumni are doing, and we love staying in touch.
Tell all your friends to follow @AlumniOakhill on Twitter Facebook, and Instagram.
Happy Fall!
Oakhill just hosted our annual Red Barn Farm party and it was a hit! Everyone, everywhere is looking for ways to connect with their community. We were excited to provide this opportunity to connect in a safe way!
Speaking of connections, it has been fun connecting with some of you on social media. I loved seeing your graduation pictures, getting your driver's license, celebrating your birthday and so much more. Be sure to click on the button on the left to tell me more about what you have been up to lately!
I also wanted you to know that I have officially begun my new role at Oakhill. I just finished my 17th year as a classroom teacher and have started my new position as Director of Student Affairs, which will include working on programs for our current students and our former students (alumni). I LOVE Oakhill and couldn't see myself leaving this family, but I was ready to challenge myself and try something different. I know I will miss the classroom, but I am also excited about the adventure ahead.
You can plan on hearing from me once a month with this newsletter. Plus, Mrs. Feaster has agreed to help me keep in touch with you. You may hear from either myself or Mrs. Feaster periodically to check in or let you know about any upcoming events.
Thinking of you!
Maggie Newhouse
Feel free to contact me with updates or just to say hello!
