Each year, the Orono Alliance for Education raises money for our Annual Fund, which we in turn grant to the Orono School district to help sustain program enhancements and enrich the learning experiences for all Orono students.

Since our inception in 2000, the Alliance has raised enough money to give the schools, on average, $275,000 per year. This money has helped preserve teacher positions, add guidance counselors and enhance programs. Our fiscal year ends on June 30, and we are short of our annual goal. Please consider making a donation today.

We believe the funding facts of the Orono School District require a response from Orono residents and parents. We have responded with a solution to the funding challenge:  raise money through donations to enhance the quality of education of Orono students.
