On Oct. 26, Ohio EPA met with Smith School sixth graders to discuss engineering applications associated with Geology, including the rock cycle, soil properties and characteristics as well as physical applications to well fields, landfills, bridges and building foundations. The class learned about common geological applications from the times of the cavemen and ancient Egyptians to today’s ever expanding American infrastructure. Collectively the classes conducted a soil analysis of the Smith School playground. After discussing the Oakwood water supply’s well logs and examining a composite sample of three separate student-dug 3.5-foot soil borings, they were able to accurately predict and characterize the clay soils that make up the playground area.

The Oakwood Spanish Department and The Oakwood Register is sponsoring the 5th Annual Coat Drive for the Salud Community Clinic which serves the the Spanish-speaking migrant population of Southwest Ohio. Located in Tipp City, Salud is staffed by medical volunteers from area hospitals.
Residents of Oakwood have donated hundreds of coats for men, women, and children that have been distributed to needy families. If you would like to donate a coat or other winter outer-wear items, please drop them off at the Oakwood Register at 435 Patterson Rd., or send them with students to Mrs. Long’s room (the Spanish classroom) at the high school.
“Successes are often attributed to one’s roots. Oakwood and its alumni have deep and far-reaching roots full of many accomplished and amazing alumni.”
