Our mission is to make Oregon City the best place to raise a child.
In order to do that, we provide financial support to students and our schools so that all children in the greater Oregon City Community are inspired and prepared to be life-long learners and productive citizens of the community, the country, and the world.
Oregon City Schools Foundation seeks to develop a community wide commitment to support a quality education for all children from birth through 12th grade. We will promote a college and career going culture, beginning in elementary school that encourages and supports enrollment in college or career education upon graduation from high school. Our goal is a highly skilled work force that lives, works and plays in Oregon City.
Our volunteer board members are essential to the foundation.

Our Process:
EARLY LEARNING:
OCSF believes student success is achieved by each student being a proficient reader by 3rd grade. OCSF will put books into each child’s hand beginning at birth and continuing through elementary school.
MIDDLE SCHOOL:
OCSF believes a well rounded education is key to student success. Our middle school investment includes support for outdoor school and our music programs.
HIGH SCHOOL:
High school presents new challenges with college and career preparedness as our focus. OCSF will assist students with scholarships for SAT testing, applications and college enrollment expenses.
