Leadership is not about having power over others, and it definitely isn’t about telling people what to do. Being a leader means caring about the people you’re leading and focusing on their success more than your own. #edchat

I'm thrilled to announce Oak as a Model PLC School @SolutionTree! This is a testament to our entire staff, who work tirelessly to ensure that every child at Oak is seen, valued, and known for their strengths and opportunities for continued growth. #WeAreOak #PLCatwork @CCSD181

We celebrated our kindergarten bound students last week with a special ceremony! We wish them the best of luck next year. #burrridge #clarendonhills #hinsdale

Oak School partnered with Drexel for a wonderful sister school program. Over 1,000 books were donated, allowing each Drexel student to receive 6 books! Oak's 5th graders were able to take a field trip to read with kindergarten, first and second-grade buddies!
