{Parents}      OIS Parents' Club Overview
 
The mission of the OIS Parents' Club is to promote educational excellence at OIS and provide funding and support for people, programs and projects, all of which improve the middle school experience for OIS students and parents.

 

 
 
 
What is the OIS Parents' Club
The OIS Parents' Club is an all-volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization comprised of parents of Orinda Intermediate School students. We fund, manage and support important people, programs and projects at OIS. All parents of OIS students are invited to become a member of the OIS Parents' Club. 70% of the families at OIS contributed to the OIS Parents' Club in the 2009/2010 school year.
 
The OIS Parent Community
What makes OIS so special? Ask anyone and they will tell you it's the parents, teachers and students who come together to create a thriving academic community. You may know that research shows that when parents are involved in their children's schools, students do better. At OIS, our parents prove this is true.
  

OIS parents are dedicated.  We understand that state and federal funding for our school is inadequate. We know that our financial support is considered necessary to provide the enriched education we desire for our students. For more than twenty five years, OIS parents have raised money needed to bridge the gap between public funding and the true cost of a well-rounded, high-quality education for all OIS students. For the 2009/2010 school year, our Parents' Club provided $446 per student for a total gift of $371,000 to our school. We're dedicated!

 

OIS parents are involved.  In addition to the financial support parents provide, we also have an active volunteer community who daily make a difference at OIS. Our volunteers encompass a large group of parents serving on our Parents' Club Board, volunteers working on campus each day, parents who work in the Bulldog Kennel serving brunch and lunch five days a week and others who from their homes and/or workplace manage the many programs and projects we proudly sponsor. Thousands of volunteer hours are spent each year helping our school. We're involved!

 

OIS parents care.  Why do we spend time and money on our school? Because OIS parents who become members of our Parents' Club all care. We care about the education our children will receive at OIS and we all want it to be the best. We care!
