All Snow and No Play?

Snow days… what do you visualize when you hear the words snow day?

Here on the Oakhill snow day has multiple meanings. It can mean the inability to have a normal school day due to inclement weather OR it can mean a great day for sledding! As you can see in some of these pictures, our students truly enjoy a “snow day”! I do love a great snow… finding the right hill, grabbing a fast sled, and hitting the slopes!

We have been fortunate to have a PE coach who appreciates the snow. Coach Speer is actually unhappy when I call a true snow day… she likes being here, on the hill, watching the children’s eyes light up as they race down the snow on their sleds. She and Coach Scheidecker and Coach Beckham had a fun-filled few days on the Oakhill slope!

Sledding is just one reason we look forward to winter at Oakhill Day School!

There aren’t many great sledding snows in a given season, so when we do have one, we HAVE to take advantage of it! And, there is nothing better than sledding with all your friends!
