School Supplies for 2025-2026

You can order school supplies for the next academic year via EPI school supplies. Supplies will be delivered directly to your child’s classroom by open house or the first day of school. Order your packs at https://www.educationalproducts.com/shoppacks/ using the school ID OAK249.

Flyers will be sent home with your child on Friday. You will get the EPI flyer as well as a list by grade, in case you prefer to buy the supplies yourself.

School supply lists will be updated on the Oak Hill website soon.

PTA Meeting with Police Cyber Safety Talk

Please join us for our final in-person PTA meeting in the Oak Hill Cafeteria on Wednesday, May 21st from 6:30-7:30pm. PTA business will include voting on a budget motion and voting on next year's PTA executive board

After brief PTA business, Fairfax County Police Officers specializing in crime prevention will offer a special presentation on Cyber Safety & Children addressing predators, online bullying, and appropriate use of technology. They are eager to be a resource for parents, so we encourage children to stay home as this can be a sensitive topic.

Annual Book Swap

It’s nearly time for the Book Swap! From now until June 2nd, send in books from home that your child has outgrown, ensuring they are still in readable condition (no coloring, missing pages, torn pages, etc.). Your child can place books in one of the Book Exchange Bins near the Front door & inside Door 4 at Kiss n’ Ride.

After your child places books in the bin, they must grab a paper slip and write the number of books they donated. This will be their ‘receipt’ & will allow them to select an equal number of books at the book exchange (up to 15 books). Receipts can then be given to their teachers for safekeeping until the Exchange.  The Book Exchange will be held on June 3rd for grades 4-6 and on June 4th for PreK-3 during regular school hours. Kids can 'shop' with their receipt and choose new books to take home!

Parent volunteers will be needed for all 3 days. Interested parents and guardians should email Tara Finnerty tfinn2011@live.com for more information.

Let's promote reading and recycling within our Oak Hill community!

  • Activities for children of all ages that inspire curiosity and a love of learning
