— from Lorena Stankevich, Principal, Orcas Elementary School
A very special thank you to Island Market for sponsoring a back to school, school supply drive and to our community for donating! Earlier last week, Island Market wrote OISD a check for $3000.
This money went solely to purchase school supplies for all students. We are so appreciative of the ongoing community support! Thank you!

Are we doing “richest country in the world“ if we have to depend on the very generous donations from our local businesses and individuals to keep our schools and students adequately supplied? Richest maybe In per capita income, but not in real opportunity through education. Thank you Island Market.
