About Us

The Oracle School District (OSD) may be small, but its goals are big. Its tagline, Small Town Roots. Global Expectations., reflects those goals.

 

Funding has at times though, been a real challenge. That is why a few concerned citizens started a foundation to help fill the gap. Their efforts resulted in the Oracle Schools Foundation’s (OSF) May 2015 approval as a 501(c)3 status by the IRS. The OSF’s vision is to “be a beacon of excellence in public education” and the mission is to provide “financial and related support to ensure that every Oracle student has unlimited opportunity to succeed.”

​

As of August 2023, the Foundation had raised almost $900,000. Donations to the Oracle Schools Foundation are tax deductible but entirely separate from Arizona’s tax credit program. Under the state’s tax credit program, individuals are allowed to donate $200 to any public school district and reduce their state tax bill by that same amount. Donations to the OSF reduce a taxpayer’s tax liability on Federal taxes and may be made in addition to making a tax credit contribution.
