Oregon City Schools Foundation

We are pleased to announce the 2026 Legacy Scholarship winners!

Thank you to the Oregon City High School Class of 1974 for your generous donations to make these scholarships happen.

To donate, or find out more information about the Legacy Scholarships, please visit our website at ocsf.org.

We know it's the middle of summer, but we are thrilled to share that the OBOB (Oregon Battle of the Books) books for the 2026-2027 school year are already arriving! 🎉

We love being able to provide these books to elementary and middle schools across the City School District 62. Here’s to another fantastic year of reading, competing, and growing together! 📖

✨ Fun Fact: It is because of the incredible support and funds raised from the Oregon Trail Game Races that we are able to make these purchases and support the Oregon City School District in so many ways.

Come see us next Thursday, July 16th for our Summer mouthguard clinic! 🏈⚽️⚾️🏀🏉🥎🥍🥊🥋

We just can't get enough of the photos from the Oregon Trail Race!🏃

Today, we got to celebrate some of the hardest working folks in the Oregon City School District 62, the incredible Transportation & Facility Services teams! We brought in a spread of food to say a massive THANK YOU for everything they do day in and day out. 🙌

As the school year winds down and excitement hits an all-time high, we know keeping things running smoothly is no easy feat. From ensuring our students get to school safely to keeping our buildings running, these workers are the backbone of our community. We truly appreciate their dedication to our students and families!

✨ Fun Fact: It is because of the incredible support and funds raised from the Oregon Trail Game Races that we are able to host appreciation events like this and support the Oregon City School District in so many ways.

We are still buzzing from the energy of the Oregon Trail Game Race, and we need to take a moment to celebrate our volunteers!

We had an incredible crew of about 50 volunteers who stepped up, worked hard, and kept dysentery at bay for everyone involved. Without their time, energy, and smiles, this race quite literally would not have happened.

Our incredible crew tackled a checklist of jobs, including:
🗺️ Months of race planning and prep
🛍️ Stuffing swag bags & hunting down local coupons
🎟️ Handing out participant packets
🚧 Setting up the courses & directing parking
📣 Standing at "Decision Points" along the trail while cheering racers on
🛑 Ensuring safety with street crossing supervision
🥤 Keeping everyone hydrated at the water stations
🏅 Handing out medals and helping racers check their final results at the finish line (did you survive the trail?!)
🎈 Running the Kids Corner & cheering on the Kids Fun Run
🧹 Staying late to clean up and leave the trail better than we found it

To every single person who donated their time: THANK YOU! You brought the magic of the game to life.

As our race continues to grow, we hope our volunteer family grows right along with it. We can’t wait to see you all again next year! 🥾⛺

We were so glad that other organizations from the Oregon City community could join us at the Oregon Trail Game Race this year!

We want to give a huge thank you to everyone who came out to run, walk, and cheer during the Oregon Trail Game 5K Race. Because of your incredible participation, the Oregon City Schools Foundation will be able to continue providing support, funding, and resources for our local schools. We couldn’t do it without this amazing community! 🙌

👉 Now for the ultimate question... Did you survive the Oregon Trail?
