Meet the Oak Knoll Centennial Committee

About this episode

The episode discusses the Oak Knoll School's centennial celebration and the efforts of the centennial committee to commemorate this milestone.

As the summer draws to a close and we enter the 2024-25 school year, Oak Knoll steps through a momentous threshold. We enter our 100 th year as a Catholic educational institution indelibly connected to the Society of the Holy Child Jesus and the visionary pedagogical dreams of Cornelia Connelly. Delayed somewhat by the pandemic but kicking into full gear almost a year and a half ago, a centennial committee has been hard at work collaborating to ensure the coming school year is filled with fun events, a rich understanding of our history, and an exciting look ahead at the schools' next century.
