We're
particularly proud of our ENRICHMENT GRANTS which provide financial
support for current OPRFHS students to enroll in special summer
programs that they might otherwise be unable to afford.
In 2003,
our first year, a grant of $3,000 helped 5 students participate
in an ecology program in Costa Rica. In
2004, we gave $13,5000 for 35 students to participate in a
wide variety of programs including classes at the Art Institute
of Chicago, writing & film production courses at Columbia
College of Chicago, music camp at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp
and OPRFHS courses in Math Enrichment, Photography and
Marine Biology.
Through 2009 we have provided over $75,000 to
help 140 students participate
in exciting academic enrichment programs with another $9,500 to subsidize 165 additional students in Math & English summer school courses. Your support
with a TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION is
vital so we can continue this program - make your contributiion
to the Alumni Association HERE.

More recently, we've helped students attend writing courses at Southern Illinois University, conservation programs in Tennessee and foreign study in England, Japan, France and Tanzania.
We are supported ENTIRELY by DONATIONS from members, alumni and the community.
All donations
are TAX-DEDUCTIBLE and any amount is appreciated. Checks payable
