OFFICE OF ADVANCEMENT / FUNDRAISERS
Contact: Mrs. Michelle Meador
O’Hara is an active community with many great fundraisers and events for our families. Each school year we typically have three main fundraisers; Annual Auction, Jog-A-Thon, and Fair Parking. Our Annual Auction is in February and is our largest fundraiser. Jog-A-Thon takes place in the fall and is out only student-led fundraiser for the school. And, lastly, Fair Parking coincides with the Lane County Fair; we provide parking for fair-goers in our field and parking lot. These events are extremely important to O’Hara and help us bring the gap between our tuition and the cost of educating our students. Our fundraisers and other events are put on by many volunteers and our Advancement staff.
With our current situation and COVID-19; our fundraising has pivoted for the 20-21 school year. Fair Parking for 2020 was cancelled. Jog-A-Thon has been moved to the spring of 2021 and we are still determining the best course of action for our Annual Auction.
For more information about our events and fundraising efforts, please visit our support page.

DRESS CODE
O'Hara has a uniform dress code that was designed to foster school pride, to create a non-competitive dress environment, and to be easy for students and parents. Presenting a good appearance shows respect for each other and for one's self. In general, students are to be neat, clean and modest. The O'Hara Catholic School emblem or logo is permitted on clothing; otherwise, clothing is to be free of logos, advertising, pictures or other messages. Clothing should fit properly and allow ease of movement for participation in outdoor and other activities, but not be oversized. All undergarments are to be completely covered.
The complete O'Hara dress code policy is included in the yearly Parent/Student Handbook, and printed, visual guide is available in the front office.
Click HERE to view a digital version of our visual guide.
O'Hara uniforms can be purchased at a number of locations, including:
Lands' End (preferred school # 9000-3197-2)
French Toast (preferred school # QS476QR)
Tommy Hilfiger (click here for TH Fit Guide)
**Dress Code modifications for the 2020-21 school year**
We anticipate students will be outside in light rain or wet ground conditions more often than in the past. As such, we are requesting that all students have:

**Dress Code modifications for the 2020-21 school year**
We anticipate students will be outside in light rain or wet ground conditions more often than in the past. As such, we are requesting that all students have:
- Rain boots - they may be worn to/at school in wet weather
- Rain jacket
- A complete change of uniform clothes to keep at school. Please send a set of extra clothes (socks, pants, underwear, uniform shirt) in a sealed, labeled Ziploc bag.
- In addition, current ODE guidelines for schools say masks (or shields) are required for staff, and recommended for grades 6-12. However, the current state mandate requires masks for everyone over the age of 2 in public spaces. We expect that the state will clarify and reconcile the guidance prior to the start of the school year. We also expect that O’Hara will not have a say in this matter and our students and staff will follow mandates from the state. There will not be specific color requirements for masks. However, masks should not have words or phrases. Additionally, they may not have any graphic or design that is distracting, scary, or otherwise inappropriate for an elementary school setting. We do encourage families to prepare for a way to label their masks with student or family names. Please click here for one option we found.
