Fundraising

The goal of our PTA fundraising efforts is simple:  to strengthen our school community, as well as raise money for enrichment programs that benefit our students. In addition to fundraising events, the PTA hosts several free family events throughout the school year. The PTA also sponsors several fundraising programs such as Read-a-thon, School Toolbox, store bonus rewards, Dining for Dollars, Box Tops, and much more.  We are also always looking for OES corporate sponsors to whom we offer unique advertising opportunities!!

Look for more information coming soon about this school year’s special fundraising events, activities and opportunities!
