Welcome
The district administrative team works to support the sites in the
education of district students. Each of the district administrators
began as classroom teachers and moved through areas of education such
as mentorships and site providers. Various levels of school site
administration has provided district administrators with valuable
background and insight to assist current site administrators. The
district administration carries out the goals and objectives of the
District Strategic Plan approved by the Oakdale Joint Unified School
Board.
