💙🐻❤️ B.E.A.R. Pride at Oskaloosa Elementary! ❤️🐻💙

We’ve made it through three and a half weeks of school, and our Oskie Bears are continuing to show their B.E.A.R. Pride! 🌟📚 As we head into a four-day weekend for Labor Day, we’re excited to celebrate the students who have been making a difference through their everyday actions and choices. 👏🎉

B.E.A.R. Pride means:

💙 Be Engaged
🐻 Empathy
❤️ Act Responsible
💙 Respect

Our B.E.A.R. Pride nominees have been showing kindness, supporting their classmates, making responsible choices, and helping create a positive school community. 🐾✨

Let’s give a big cheer for this week’s B.E.A.R. Pride nominees! 🎉 We’re so proud of the way our Oskie Bears have started the school year!

And now it’s time to enjoy a little extra time to relax! ☀️🇺🇸 Have a safe, fun, and relaxing Labor Day weekend, Bears! We’ll see you back at school on Wednesday! 💙🐻❤️

Keep showing your B.E.A.R. Pride wherever you go! 🐾

Volunteers Needed for Reality U!

We need parent and community volunteers to help host Reality U—an interactive financial literacy simulation for 8th and 10th graders from Oskaloosa and Valley Falls!

During the event, students navigate adult life with an assigned career, income, and family situation. As a volunteer, you'll manage a booth for a specific life expense (Transportation, Rent, Childcare, Insurance, etc.). You’ll be given a simple script to guide student decisions—the students do the actual work while you help explain real-world costs!

Date: Monday, October 5
Time: 8:00 AM – 11:45 AM
Location: Oskaloosa High School Gym

No financial background is required—just a willingness to engage with students! If you can't make it, sharing this post helps tremendously.

Sign Up to Volunteer Here! https://app.realityu.org/volunteer/a79d38bc-f691-4d0c-fad7-ad0e10336cf1

📸 Mrs. Sloan’s Yearbook students have been learning the fundamentals of photography—getting hands-on experience with camera equipment, framing, and manual settings. Now, they're putting those skills to work in the field.

From sideline sports action to student activities around campus, they are capturing the moments that define our school year.

Check out their latest photos in our shared albums linked below:
