🥋🐎 TRU Taekwondo Center has taken over Oak Ridge Elementary! ❤️🖤

This week, our C**ts are getting an introduction to Tru Taekwondo and learning how it can help them build confidence, focus, respect, and self-discipline—all while having fun!

The excitement continues next week with a special after-school program Monday–Thursday, October 26–29, followed by a graduation ceremony on Saturday, October 31, at Tru Taekwondo’s dojo in Oak Ridge! 🎓🥋

The program costs just $20, and 100% of the proceeds will be donated back to Oak Ridge Elementary! What a wonderful way to try something new while supporting our school!

Today, we took a little time to celebrate some BIG accomplishments! In our state evaluation system, BLUE means EXCEEDED, and our incredible ORE staff gave us plenty of reasons to break out the blue!

Blue cupcakes, blue snacks, blue drinks - we embraced ALL things blue as we celebrated the hard work, dedication, and heart that helped our C**ts achieve such incredible growth last year.

These results don’t happen by accident. They are the result of a team that believes in our students, pushes them to grow, supports one another, and shows up every single day ready to make a difference.

A HUGE thank you to our amazing PTO for helping us celebrate by providing some of today’s treats! We are so grateful for the many ways you continue to support and celebrate our staff.

We may always be RED & BLACK at heart, but today, BLUE looked pretty good on ORE!

We are so proud of this team and so excited about where we’re headed next!
