Administration

Dear Oakland Families,

 

Welcome to a new school year at Oakland Elementary! I am thrilled to begin another exciting chapter in partnership with you, our students, families, and community at a school where learning is centered on growth, connection, and purpose.

 

At Oakland, we envision a community where education shapes confident, compassionate individuals who become leaders of positive change. This vision guides every decision we make, from the relationships we build to the learning experiences we provide. We are not only focused on academic excellence, but on nurturing the whole child to ensure each student feels seen, supported, and inspired every day.

 

Our mission, to spark a passion for citizenship and lifelong learning, comes to life in our classrooms through meaningful learning opportunities, creative expression, and a culture of respect and responsibility. Whether it’s through collaboration, problem-solving, or service to others, Oakland Eagles are encouraged to take flight as learners and leaders.

 

As your principal, I am committed to fostering a school environment that is welcoming, inclusive, and student-centered. Together, we will continue to build a school community where children thrive and where families are valued partners in the journey.

 

Thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. I look forward to an incredible year ahead filled with discovery, joy, and growth.

 

With gratitude and excitement for the year ahead,

Lindsay Burns
Principal, Oakland Elementary School
