We need your help! The 3rd, 4th, and 5th Graders at OCE are preparing to take their End of Grade Tests (EOG) for Reading, Math & 5th Grade Science. Our testing coordinator, Ms. Angela Johnson, could really use some extra volunteers to help with this process.

Please click here for a description of what she needs assistance with.

One of the things we need MOST this time of year is lunch volunteers! The amount of value provided by our lunch volunteers cannot be overstated!

The OCE First Mate program is an opportunity for dads, father figures, uncles, grandfathers, etc... to spend significant amounts of time in our school doing everything from reading in classrooms, to assisting at lunch, to interacting with students during recess. This program specifically targets a group that is statistically less likely to volunteer in schools.

We have full-day and half-day slots available. Interested? Register here!

All participants must be registered WCPSS volunteers.

We're excited to welcome families back into the cafeteria as lunch volunteers!

Whether you have 30 minutes or two hours, the OCE staff appreciates your support! In order to volunteer, you must be on the WCPSS approved volunteers list.

If you have not yet registered to be a WCPSS volunteer, you can do so in the OCE front office from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

You can find the signup form here!
