Live Oaks Families,
There are a few items coming up for your calendar. We don't have school this Monday, February 16 or Friday, March 6. Next Thursday, February 19, we have a CTSO fundraiser at Freddy's in Milford from 4:00 - 9:00. When you tell them you're with Live Oaks, a portion of the proceeds will come directly back to our students. We hope you stop in. The Live Oaks prom is Saturday, March 14 and students can get those tickets here at school.
We are solidly into the 2nd semester now. I know I say this regularly, but the end of the year is going to sneak up on all of us very quickly. It is very important that you remind your student to check both their Great Oaks email and home school email every day. We do not want students to miss out on important home school information regarding opportunities, community traditions or graduation. That is not information that we have access to share with them.
If you have questions about anything related to Live Oaks, just reach out. We are happy to help you find that information or answer your questions.
Have a great weekend!
Dr. Amy Crouse
Dean of Instruction

Great Oaks Career Campuses do not charge tuition or school fees as part of our mission to make career technical education more widely available. Other than uniforms, there are no costs to participate in our programs. This year, instead of asking for traditional school fees as required at your home schools, we're
inviting you to invest directly in something that makes a real impact—our Career
& Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs).
These student-led organizations develop leadership, technical skills, and real-world readiness that prepare our students for college and careers. From competitions to community servlce to professional development, your support fuels everything we do.

We want to make sure you're well-informed in the event of a school closure, such as those due to inclement weather. Knowing where to look for official announcements will help keep everyone safe and minimize confusion.
How We Notify You of a Closure
If Live Oaks Career Campus must close, we will send out notifications using these methods:
-
ParentSquare (Primary Method): This is our most direct and fastest communication channel. You'll receive a notification immediately.
-
School Website: Check the homepage for an alert or banner announcement.
-
Local News Stations: The closure will be reported through local television and radio outlets.
To ensure you get the quickest notification of any school closure, please take a moment to verify that you are actively receiving notices from us via ParentSquare.
- If you're not receiving them, or are unsure, please log into your account or contact the school office for assistance.
- Ensuring your contact information is up-to-date in ParentSquare is the most effective way to stay informed.
Inclement Weather Note
If the closure is due to inclement weather, please remember:
- Follow your student's affiliated high school's closure/delay announcements.
- If Live Oaks remains open but your student cannot attend, please contact their instructors for assignment updates.
Your cooperation in keeping your contact information current helps us keep everyone safe and informed!
