Great Oaks Elementary

Beginning the 2025-26 school year, Middle School North will start at 8:00 AM and Middle School South will start at 8:20 AM. These slight adjustments — just 4 minutes earlier for MSN and 16 minutes later for MSS — were designed to better support families who may have to drop off at both schools while keeping close to the current time schedule. We appreciate your flexibility as we make thoughtful changes to help everyone’s daily schedule run a little smoother as we transition to this new grade level configuration! Bus time notifications will be sent out in Mid-August to allow for enrollment changes. Parents can request transportation after August 1st when filling out the Annual Forms. 

 Outstanding Teachers of the Year were recognized at the March board meeting. Congratulations and thank you for your commitment to our students.
