The School Committee members will nominate, vote on, and recognize individuals at posted School Committee meetings during the year. The criteria for nominating an individual is as follows:
- one who makes significant voluntary contributions to building a sense of unity and purpose in the community; - one who assists others in improving the community through volunteer programs, social groups, outreach centers, sports programs, or after school groups; - one who demonstrates positive values and behaviors that influence others to emulate; and - one who influences or stimulates others to effect positive changes through personal development or self-improvement. Anyone who wishes to suggest an individual for nomination should email any one of the School Committee members with the individual’s name along with a brief description of what they have done in the community and why you believe they are deserving of this recognition. The School Members can be reached as follows:

2018/2019 Service Award #1 September 10, 2018 Nominations Announced 2018/2019 COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD #2 THE WINNER IS: Helen Neidhardt - Mrs. Helen Neidhardt has been a permanent fixture and honorary Clara Barton staff member. She has selfishly donated her time, talent, and "treasure" to the school community during the school year as well as over the summer when Helen can also be found helping to prepare classrooms, bulletin boards, and whatever else is needed. Her enthusiasm and positive attitude is contagious throughout the building. Helen periodically surprises the Clara Barton staff with luncheons, snacks and other special touches. She is also extremely active at the Oxford Middle School where she created the costume for the main character in the play "Elf" which was performed at OMS. She also decorated rooms and hallways at OMS to raise money for the classes. Her contributions are limitless and her ongoing devotion to the Oxford Public School community is evident in the supportive efforts she provides. You will not find many retirees that have donated every day of the school year and more to enrich the lives of so many in a positive way...adults, young adults, and children.
