Announcing The Crooked Oak 4:4 Challenge!
Crooked Oak Public Schools is thrilled to launch our new after-school program, The Crooked Oak 4:4 Challenge—a powerful two-hour block designed to develop well-rounded Ruf-Nex students!
The "4:4" stands for our commitment to four days a week of focused activity, guaranteeing four hours of academics and four hours of extracurricular challenge every week. We're turning after-school hours into structured success!

Why Join?
Balanced Focus: We ensure students receive equal attention in both schoolwork and extracurricular activities, making them stronger students and performers.
