The ORLA PTA supports all of our school’s programs, but we can’t do it without you. Whether through donations, membership, securing sponsorships from small businesses, or volunteering, your involvement is crucial to our collective success.
How You Can Help
Donate to the PTA
100% of your donation will be used to support our students and staff.
In addition to sponsoring enriching programs like after-school clubs and community events, the PTA plays a crucial role in directly supporting ORLA’s needs. Our financial contributions have included purchasing books and supplies for classrooms, and this year, we are proud to fund a dedicated reading specialist. Not only will this enhance our students' educational experience, but it puts another adult in our building helping our kids when budget cuts have reduced staffing in all of Olympia’s schools.
Please consider contibuting to our general fund so we can do even more for the ORLA community!
CURRENT FUNDRAISERS
JOIN US
Please take a moment to sign up for a PTA membership.
Your membership can help grow and strengthen our school Orca pod!
The PTA uses your membership dues, ideas, feedback and volunteer work to do things like improve the school, support academic needs, advocate for all students, and host fun events to connect with others and build a stronger, more inclusive school community.
ORLA’s PTA believes in access for all. It absolutely takes financial resources to support our students, educators and ORLA’s physical spaces. However, we also believe in allowing everyone to choose the best or most appropriate membership level for themselves. If folks who can pay a little more do, it will empower others to pay a little less when they need to. The outcome? Everyone will be able to feel part of our wonderful community—and we’ll be able to support our kids too. We have a suggested donation of $20 for an individual membership and $40 for a family, but we welcome everyone at any level. If making a donation is not accessible for you at this time, we’d still love to have you. Please click here to join at no cost, or click the JOIN NOW button if you can give any donation with your membership.
Please consider joining our PTA because your voice matters and because we can do more together than apart.
