Help the Oak Creek PTO fund programs that directly support our school and our students!

We are asking every family to pay a $100 per student fee.

Where does the money go?

The bulk of our money goes directly to our teachers (through individual grants and grade level team grants) for classroom enrichment.

Grade level team teacher grants (~$20,000 or 25% of the money we raise): Teaching teams use this money for field trips, group projects and other grade level purposes.

Individual teacher grants (~$15,000 or 20%): Each teacher gets a fund to purchase enrichment activities, materials and resources used in the classroom.

Events and celebrations (~10,000): We sponsor classroom celebrations, Talent Show, Better Together, Carnival, Field Day, and a Fifth Grade celebration to build community and provide our students with a more vibrant school experience.

Enrichment Programs (~$5,000): Each year the PTO funds crucial education enrichment programs such as Art Literacy, OBOB and Science/STEAM nights.

Teacher, Staff and Volunteer Support (~$3,500): The teachers and staff at OCE are the lifeblood of our school and providing occasional meals, coffee and treats as well as improvements to the staff room help show our appreciation for them.
