ATTENTION - OCC Community (current and alums)! Get ready to support us in a 7-day Flash Fundraiser! This shopping/fundraising opportunity will be over in a "flash" so act now!
For Small Hands Fundraiser
OCC direct website link: https://www.forsmallhands.com/scp/116316
Order by December 15 for OCC to receive fundraising credit.
Our school orders many of our classroom materials from Montessori Services. This company also offers access to the public via For Small Hands - an excellent place for purchasing educational toys, child-appropriate tools and household items, and many more wonderful gifts to use in your home.
Many winter holidays, birthdays, and other gift opportunities are coming for your children, nieces and nephews, friends, etc. Please consider making a purchase with OCC's customer number listed, and we will receive 10% to 15% credit. This is a simple fundraiser that really benefits our school as we purchase the bulk of supplies for our classrooms from this specialized Montessori company.
Share the link/ordering instructions with family and friends - the broader the participation, the more success that we will have! Ordering online is simple and the order will ship directly to you (or any address that you choose). We really appreciate your help and support!

As alumni, parents, friends and teachers, you know first hand the benefits of our school! Your donations will help keep tuition accessible for all families (40% of current families receive financial aid!) and provide teachers and students with tools they need to thrive.
