Oakwood Schools to Partner with FinalForms
Oakwood Schools is very excited to announce we are expanding our partnership with FinalForms, an online forms and data management service to allow families to complete and sign enrollment, back-to-school and 7th-12th grade athletic participation forms for students online.
The most exciting news is FinalForms saves data from season-to-season and year-to-year, meaning families will never need to enter the same information twice! FinalForms also pre-populates information wherever possible, for each student in the same family, saving everyone time.
Parents and/or guardians may also review data at any time to verify it is current. Parents and/or guardians will be required to sign all student forms once per year and after any update.
If you are new to the Oakwood Schools district, please visit our New Student Registration page for more information and step-by-step directions.

My Lumberjack Story
Each month, we share with you another one of our staff member's Lumberjack Story. To see all of the stories, visit our archives at My Lumberjack Story.
Oakwood Schools is partnering with the Ohio Department of Education and the Ohio Department of Public Safety to provide an anonymous tip line that could prevent a school safety crisis. Calls and text to the tip line, 844-SaferOH (844-723-3764), are answered 24 hours a day by trained professionals who can help.
This tip line allows students and adults to anonymously share information with school officials and law enforcement officials about threats to student safety—whether that involves a threatened mass incident or harm to a single student.
If you see something or have concerns, say something. Don't wait until it's too late.
