🌟 "The best thing about the activities at Oskaloosa Schools is that everyone who wants to be included can be included." 🌟
This response from our recent activities survey highlights the heart of Oskaloosa Schools. Inclusivity isn't just a goal—it's a fundamental part of who we are. We believe every student should have the opportunity to participate and thrive in our activities, regardless of background, skill level, or interest.
What sets us apart from other districts? Oskaloosa Schools offers unique opportunities that you won't find elsewhere. We go above and beyond to ensure that every student can find their place and excel in our diverse range of activities.
