Happy New School Year! – Mrs. F.

Congratulations to our Oakman Lion 5th graders on their promotion to 6th grade! I am super proud of all of you! See below for a wonderful video Ms. Chehab put together.

As we wrap up the school year and head into summer, I want to say how proud I am of all of the hard work that ALL Oakman Lion students put in during the school year and during this time of learning at home. I hope all of you have a wonderful summer and please feel free to stay in touch via email (farynie@dearbornschools.org) or the Class Dojo messages. I miss you all and cannot wait to see you in the music room again! Goodbye for now!
