The Olympic View PTA raises funds throughout the school year with a variety of fundraising methods, enabling the PTA to sustain and strengthen the learning environment at Olympic View. Every spring the PTA Board determines how to budget these funds for the following year by consulting with the school principal and the OV community. PTA members then have the opportunity to vote to approve the final budget at the PTA general meeting in May.

Have ideas for other/alternate fundraisers? Let us know by sending an email to our Fundraising Co-Chairs. The PTA thanks you for your continued support in our fundraising efforts!
