Sudden Opportunity Program

At the Norman Public School Foundation, we understand significant needs may arise that fall outside of our general classroom support grant program. Our Sudden Opportunity program exists to ensure the Foundation is in a position to assist with additional opportunities that enrich learning experiences for students. Below are several examples of the Sudden Opportunity program in action. 

Traveling Planetarium

This planetarium, funded by the Norman Public School Foundation, travels to all NPS elementary schools to provide students with an engaging, hands-on lesson about science and space exploration. Donations made to the Foundation make projects like this one possible!

Associates Degree Tuition Assistance

In 2024, Norman Public Schools launched a program for students to earn their associate degree by the time they finish high school. The Foundation provides tuition assistance for students in need who are enrolled in the program.
