Day of Reading

About Our Day of Reading

Day of Reading is an annual, student-led fundraiser inspiring friends and family to give, while conveying our love of books and reading! Day of Reading 2024 launches on Wednesday, January 31, and culminates on Friday, February 16 when Oak Grove students come to school in their pajamas, along with a favorite stuffed toy and a treasured book or two. The day is spent exploring the magic of words and pictures.

Impactful Fundraising Beyond the Classroom

This year, students will raise funds for teaching tools a fund that directly supports students and teachers by fulfilling special classroom requests for one-time asks. Teaching Tools has helped expand classroom libraries, add new cameras for Photography classes, and sponsor special field trips to name just a few projects our students have benefited from. Students also voted to give 20% of funds to Ojai Valley Family Shelter, a local organization providing advocacy for families and individuals who are unhoused in the Ojai Valley area of Ventura County, California. During our four month winter season, they provide a safe, restful and clean environment in which to spend the night. Volunteers provide guests with a hot meal, warm shower and clean sleeping space in the evening and a good breakfast the next morning. Ojai Valley Family Shelter relies on donations and our support through Day of Reading will help to fund their mission.
