APE Class participates in Special Olympics

Our Adapted Physical Education class is practicing skills for basketball as part of the Special Olympics program. This is new to Oxford Central School, so the students are spending time practicing a variety of skills that will enable them to become more efficient players. We will not be competing in Special Olympics this year, hopefully with in the next couple of years we will have the opportunity to show case our students in a competition.
Mr. Egan and Mr. Nuscis are now full time student teachers working with Mr. C. and Mrs. Hart respectively. They are both from East Stroudsburg University and plan on graduating in May of this year. They are both anxious to be here and Mrs. Hart and myself are happy to have them in our Oxford family.
No Name Calling Week is celebrated January 25th - 30th. Students made buttons with the slogan "No Sticks, No Stones, No Dissing to show their support and work to put an end to name calling here at OCS. On Thursday, students sat at new tables in lunch with other students whose buttons were the same color. This will hopefully begin some new friendships among out students.
