Investing in the Promise of OSS Students
Each day, our students build the confidence, skills, and mindset of achievement needed to step into the future as leaders and changemakers. We invite you to support this work in ways that are meaningful to you — whether through giving, volunteering, or sharing your resources — and to be part of the future our students are building.
Every gift, large or small, is important.
Thank you for supporting our students.
The Power of the Annual Fund
Gifts to Our Sisters’ School’s Annual Fund fuel every aspect of our students’ experience, making an immediate and lasting impact on their learning and growth. As a tuition-free school, these unrestricted gifts are essential to sustaining our safe, supportive, and academically challenging environment.
Annual Fund support provides for faculty and staff, classroom resources, enrichment opportunities, and the daily experiences that empower our students to build confidence, achieve excellence, and step into the future prepared to lead.
