We are ready! Graduation on the football field at 11am.
A shuttle from the cafeteria doors to the field seating will be available starting at 10am. Look for Marcus driving the school Chevy Malibu. That's the shuttle. There will be a bench by the doors to wait.
There are chairs and bleacher seating but friends and families are encouraged to bring lawn/camping chairs.
Please share this information. Thank you! Can't wait to celebrate the Class if 2023. #NighthawkProud.




Graduation Info! For those needing assistance getting to the seating on the football field for graduation, Marcus will be providing a shuttle from the cafeteria doors to the seats. He will be in the school car (grey Chevy Malibu) and the shuttle will begin at 10am. Please let friends and family know.
Also, there are chairs and bleacher seating available; it may not be a bad idea to bring a camping chair too.
Looking forward to a great day! #NighthawkProud


Day 96 of the Senior Trip. 😀 This has been a fun group so we are kidding on how long it has seemed. Took a cruise on the lake after going out to breakfast and we've all found our chosen lakefront "cabins." Timing was perfect as we docked and got to the restaurant, the sky opened up. At the restaurant I was ambushed with a sombrero and birthday wishes 😂🤷♂️ thanks to my 8 children 😂. A night of pizza (only after Shelly and I went to the wrong place) and movies.








Senior Trip Adventures:
Day 1 was yesterday, the travel day from Oakesdale to McCall, ID. Traveling with 8 seniors in 2 vehicles is always a good time. Shelly and I learned a lot. Great house, great location, laid back evening.
Day 2, today. Hiking the Mainline Trail at Jug Mountain Ranch. A nice 5.6 mile (round trip) jaunt that took us to Upper Jug Creek Reservoir. Photos from the start of the hike and when we got to the reservoir. Roaming town, beach games, and eating are the remaining plans for today.
Really fun group and having a fun time. #NighthawkProud



The 2023 Community Calendars are here! If you ordered one, you can pick them up anytime during school hours. Tell your friends they're here. #NighthawkProud

FFA State Convention Update!
Jessie Reed qualifies for finals in the Employment Skills and Prepared Public Speaking contests! Go Jessie!!! #NighthawkProud


Phone system update! Some people are able to call and get through while others are getting a message from Verizon. In the multiple conversations with Verizon today, they now tell us this is a "known issue" and it is being worked on. So, our advice is to try calling and if you cannot get through, send an email. Thank you. Dr. D


Last night's power surge has created some issues with the phone system and a few other things here on the hill this morning. We are working on it. If you need something, please email Shelly. Thanks. Dr. D


Reminder! Plant sale is Saturday morning!! #NighthawkProud


Wednesday night was a night of celebration in Oakesdale. Congrats to Grace and Ashton for their induction into National Honors Art Society. This is a tremendous honor for high school artists.
Additionally, the hard work of middle and high school students was celebrated for those being inducted into Oakesdale's chapters of National Honor Society and National Junior Honor Society. Congratulations to all these students for their commitment to academics and leadership. #NighthawkProud




Today is Administrative Professional's Day, Shelly Day! We cannot thank Shelly enough for all she does for us
at school, for our families, and for the community! She deserves some rest time on the floor (as pictured, during an earthquake drill). #thankyoushelly #NighthawkProud


Last night was the annual reception for recipients of the Hagan Grant. The Hagan Foundation has awarded the Oakesdale School at least one grant every year the grant program has been in existence.

Appreciation for the Hagan Foundation's commitment to supporting students through the grant awards, supporting innovative programs and practices, cannot be expressed enough. Hagan Foundation, we thank you! #thehaganfoundation #haganopportunities #NighthawkProud
