Welcome
The Oak Grove Elementary School PTA is a community of parents and staff that was established to support the students, teachers and staff of OGES. We invite you to join us this upcoming school year.
OGES PTA is proud to be named a School of Excellence by the National PTA!
Thank you for investing in our Otters and making our Big Splash a Big Success!
Thank you for investing in our Otters and making our Big Splash a Big Success!
Thank you everyone for your support of our third annual Big Splash fundraiser! Together, we raised over $40,000 for programming for our students, staff and families! We are grateful for everyone's efforts--the behind the scenes planning and prepping from our committee members, the volunteers helping with our event days, and families raising awareness by communicating information, investing in our Otters and joining us for a bit of fun!
We are 90% of the way towards our Big Splash goal! Want to help us cross the finish line?

Clear the List
Did you know that most of our amazing teachers have Amazon Wish Lists filled with items to help make their classrooms the best they can be? During the month of October, instead of stocking the teachers lounge, we are stocking their classrooms! We are hoping to shrink or even clear those lists to support our teachers, specialists, clubs and even our front office staff. To see all of our OGES Wish Lists, click here! Pro tip: Amazon Prime Days are coming up on October 6th and 7th, and if you’re shopping at Crabtree Valley Mall, don’t forget to use the School Cents app to earn rewards for Oak Grove!
