The Oak Ridge Public Schools Education Foundation invests in the Oak Ridge Public Schools beyond what public tax dollars can provide to ensure the highest quality of education for our students. The Foundation raises funds through grants and private donations and then invests in enhanced educational programming, innovative technology, and state of the art facilities for our teachers and students. We also encourage and provide lifelong learning opportunities for our teachers. The Foundation adds significant value to the investment in our school system made by our city and community members. The Oak Ridge Public Schools Education Foundation works to ensure that the Oak Ridge Public Schools provide the best public education possible and that our school system sets the standard of excellence in public education throughout the 21st century and beyond.
