  • Oxford Elementary School

    It's Cold Out

    Even though it's winter, students will go out for recess unless the temperature (including wind chill) is below 10 degrees. Please be certain that your student has clothing that will keep them warm during their recess period. We are seeing any children who arrive in sweatshirts without hats, mittens or winter boots. If a student is in need of warm winter gear, please let us know.
