Great morning to each of you!  I hope you are good.  Just a couple of birthday celebrations from  yesterday and for upcoming days.  Also, I ramble a little about the 'purpose' of our current situation.  Thanks for listening.  #Community

Good morning all!  We discuss several great things going on.  Our word of the week, purpose, and a couple of birthdays.  Walk-A-Thon is Thursday - we are still accepting donations to benefit our student fund.  Every donation helps!  Have a great day!  Also, Red Ribbon Week - all week!  Tomorrow is 'wear black' so be sure to wear black on Wednesday!

Great morning crew!  Hoping everyone had a restful Fall Break.  Our walk-a-thon will be Thursday - rain or shine.  If needed, we will do an abridged 'abridged' walk-a-thon within our hallways....if rain/cold is here.  Also, we gave out several awards to grade levels for The Golden PIG, The Oracle Flag, and The Golden Spatula.  Ask your child if his grade won.  Also, there is a PTA meeting(s) tonight - there is a virtual one and an 'in person' one - check out more information on the CECC & DCES FB page.  Also, we have several spirit days this week!  Today, wear red, Tuesday wear camo, Wednesday wear black, Thursday wear a hat, and on Friday, wear a safe (non-scary) costume!  This is all part of our Red Ribbon Week!

Reminder that tomorrow (10/16) is an eLearning date.  Thank you parents for your support.  Also, next week is Fall Break.  Please 'synergize' and invest in yourself, get out, have some fun.  Walk-a-thon is tentatively rescheduled for the Thursday upon our return.  Students can still bring in donations and still earn the prize.  Will I go with a non-red hair day soon?  We shall see.  We are getting closer!  Congrats to our 4th grade students for earning the 1st 9 week's spirit trophy.  Kudos to you!  Other awards will be announced upon our return after break.  Have a great day!  #OraclePride

Great morning all!  So good to have everyone back in our learning community under one roof.  Nothing better than having everyone here.  Due to anticipated rain tomorrow morning, we are pushing the DCES walk-a-thon back to after Fall Break.  Yes, please still collect donations and turn them in.  We are short our $8,000 DCES goal.  However, if we hit it OR Mr. Shidler see's a 'majority' of our students contribute SOMETHING to the cause, he may allow his lush red hair to not be red for a day (or more).  We are a team.  So, either we hit the big $ goal OR we see greater participation.  I am in it for YOU to win it!  Reminder that Friday is an eLearning day and we have Fall Break next week.  Have a GREAT day! #OraclePride

Good morning crew!  Hoping everyone had a great weekend.  I did the Corn Maze - yes, I feel all of that in my legs!  Anyway, talk about a few things in today's 4 1/2 minute podcast - check it out!  As of this moment, we are elearning today, Tuesday, and Friday.  Hope to see everyone back Wednesday and Thursday in the building.  Also, reminder that next week is Fall Break!  

Friday you say?  And just like that........looking forward to a great day!  Read several notes from Mrs. Anderson/Miss Irelan's class this morning - many students shared 'what' they are responsible for.  I will share more on Monday.  Last day of book fair is today.  Our walk-a-thon is picking up steam - numerous kids walked out with their uber-cool bracelet yesterday - how many more students will earn this?  How many students will 'synergize' to see if we reach our goal as a school?  Will Mr. Shidler go at least a day without red hair?  Oh, my.......................................that is all I have known. 

Welcome to Thursday!  Hoping everyone has a great day.  Thanks to Isabell H for sharing her list of responsibilities - it was well done!  Also, reminder about 'synergizing' and working together as a learning community.  #OraclePride

Welcome to Wednesday! I hope everyone is doing great!  We cover several important announcements about our learning community - we hope you will take a moment to listen.  Also, here what happened on this date in history............................'I'll be back!' - guess who said that?  Have a great day!

Our spell bowl team is revealed - kudos to all those that tried out and especially to those who made this awesome team.  Reminder that the walk-a-thon is next week.  Try to get those donations in by Monday!  Book fair is all week during regular school hours.  Thank you all for your continued support!  Word of the week - responsibility.  Mr. Shidler misplaced his favorite mask - this is NOT showing responsibility:(

Have a great day for yourself and others!
