Community of Oakdale, 04/01/2020
I want to thank you for your assistance in a safe and efficient closure of schools. As we have navigated the first weeks of closure, the State Superintendent of Instruction Tony Thurmond and Governor Gavin Newsom have now directed that all schools in the state remain closed through the remainder of the 2019-20 school year. We need all students to fully turn their attention to their respective school’s distance learning platform and stay current with the strategic activities listed by their teachers. The OJUSD will begin collecting student work for credit/grades beginning the week of 4/20/20. It is imperative that we give all our students, and particularly our seniors, a chance to address any grades that need improvement. The work collected will only be used to improve a student end of year/semester grade. Again, I cannot overemphasize the importance of students contacting their teachers via our distance learning platform located on each school site’s individual website.
We will work with each graduating class to find a date later in the summer/fall to hold the graduations. As a District we are fully committed to providing our students the traditional ceremonies as soon as social distancing protocols are lifted.
In the coming days and weeks, we will provide more information regarding grades, transcripts, scholarships, summer school and continued distance learning instruction.
Please stay safe and follow the safety procedures that have been established by Stanislaus County Public Health.

Oakdale Junior High staff and students are committed to relentlessly chasing the will to be great, by trusting in themselves and others around them; having the courage, self-discipline, knowledge, the competitive drive, and preparation to work hard and pursue a vision that is greater then one-self and inspiring others to take the journey with them. That, combined with significant parental guidance and support, is the key for preparing students for high school and years to come.
