Dear Oxford Virtual Academy Families,

I am honored and excited to introduce myself as the new Principal of Oxford Virtual Academy. It is a privilege to serve your students and your families.

My husband and I are proud to call Oxford home, where we are raising our two daughters, Abbie (4th grade) and Ellie (7th grade). Like you, we care deeply about our children’s experiences, their growth, and their sense of belonging.

I come to OVA with experience leading programs that support a wide range of learners, including students who need flexible, individualized approaches to be successful. I believe strongly that every student deserves not only access to learning, but also connection, support, and a clear path forward.

OVA offers a strong and flexible learning environment that meets students where they are and helps them grow. Whether your child is fully virtual or hybrid, they are an important part of this community.

I want to build strong relationships with our families and understand your journey in OVA and how we can continue to create a meaningful experience for your family.

I am truly grateful to be part of OVA and Oxford Community Schools family. I am looking forward to beginning our work together to support your children.

With appreciation,

Katie Hunt

Dear OVA/Quo Vadis Parents and Guardians,

We wanted to provide you with information regarding law enforcement assistance at our location earlier today. Oxford’s Gaggle monitoring system alerted staff to a concerning statement made by a student on a district device. OVA and Quo Vadis staff members responded immediately in accordance with district safety procedures and contacted law enforcement to assist.

The situation was contained quickly, and there is no threat to students or staff. A formal threat assessment is underway, and the student involved will not be returning to school while the investigation continues. As a reminder, the threat assessment team includes a School Resource Officer, Administrator, and Mental Health Professional.

We understand that situations like this can be unsettling. Please know that our safety protocols worked as designed. The well-being of our students and staff remains our highest priority. Thank you for your continued support and partnership in maintaining a safe learning environment.
