About US

Over the last 40 years, OPRF's vintage facilities have not kept pace with changes in teaching and learning, and are in need of significant investment, renovation, and, in some cases, replacement. The work is guided by the five-phase Imagine Master Facilities Plan. The product of a 17-month community-led planning process, the comprehensive Imagine Plan is designed to support the full range of curricular and extra-curricular activities that foster excellence, equity, and a sense of belonging at OPRF.

 

The Imagine Foundation was created by community volunteers who understand that the school district cannot cover the costs of the entire Imagine Plan out of its cash reserves, nor can taxpayers. The Foundation is an independent, registered nonprofit that works in partnership with the school to augment public investment with funds from private philanthropy.

 

Our strategy for supporting the high school is based on the knowledge that there are generous people - alumni, families, community members, and business owners - who will step up and invest in the future of OPRF through philanthropy.

 

The Imagine Foundation is helping further the Imagine Plan through a major fundraising campaign. The Foundation board and staff have been actively reaching out to individual donors during the "quiet phase" to secure 65% of our fundraising goal of $15 million through multi-year major gifts. In September of 2024, the Foundation team begins the "public phase" of the campaign, inviting everyone who believes in supporting the Imagine Plan to take part as a donor, volunteer, or advocate of our mission.
