Visited by an angel I wanted to share a heart warming story that took place in Oxford at the Casa Real restaurant on Sept. 24 I was taking my son and his friends out to dinner at Casa Real restaurant to celebrate his 19th birthday. There were more friends than I had expected, however I […]
Vote For . . . Oxford residents have the opportunity to shape the trajectory of the community’s future when they go to the polls in a few weeks. The open seat for the newly-formed 66th House District and four open seats for the Board of Education will make this a consequential election. I support Emily Busch […]
I was VERY disappointed in the September 7 edition of the Oxford Leader. Not ONE word was written about the opening home game of the Oxford Wildcats football game. This was not just a home opener of a football game, this was much more. This was an important event for our community. This was a […]
Just read the “What to do when you come across a safety path” (Sept. 7, Oxford Leader). Thank you for publishing this. Good to hear police are actually stopping bikers to inform them of their etiquette (which is lifesaving for them). I would also like to comment on parents roles in teaching their children on […]

As we draw closer to the beginning of the school year, I want to take this opportunity and make a request of the Oxford High School administration. I believe I may be able to garner public support, through the publishing of this request, via the Leader. I speak for myself, but hope to also be […]
Thanks Don for the article about the 80th birthday reunion (July 20, 2022). The gang is anxious to do it annually, but we will see about that. It was certainly a well written article and I appreciate it. One of the main reasons I moved here, other than being on a lake and near nature, […]
Dear Editor, My name is Sawyer Hope, I am a Scout with Troop 366 in Oxford and I just wanted to say thank you for spotlighting my Scoutmaster Mr. Streeter on his award of Scoutmaster of the Year. He means a lot to our Troop and we appreciate you sharing that with the community. Our […]
This was taken from the June 14 Oxford School Board Meeting. By Jim Gibbons, Oxford Education Association President, parent, as a community member, and Oxford teacher. I want to talk about concerns I have with recent comments which have been made to the board during unscheduled audience participation. Specifically, some parents and community members have […]
