Endowment

The Alliance is working with the school board and school administration to preserve and enhance the education of our Orono students today and in the future.

The endowment fund allows us to ensure that there will be adequate funding for longer-term enhancements. These include world class initiatives, in such areas world language and culture, and integrated Science/Technology/Engineering and Math (STEM) curriculum. These are skills that our students will need in order to compete for higher educational opportunities and jobs on a global basis.
