Big Shoulders Fund Plus

Thanks to our partnership with Big Shoulders Fund, we are a part of the Big Shoulders Fund Plus Network. Big Shoulders Fund Plus is a 10-year $70 million investment to foster a new model rooted in innovation and collaboration with school leaders.

Opportunities and Partnership

Partnership with Big Shoulders does so much more than simply supporting our school; it enriches the life of each student! Keep reading for more information on Big Shoulders opportunities your child will have access to during their time at OLG. 

Stock Market Program

Eighth-graders have the opportunity to participate in the Big Shoulders Stock Market Program. In this program, students build portfolios under the guidance of business professionals with backgrounds in investing. Students and schools whose stocks perform well get more than just the satisfaction of winning; the school and its students may receive some money!

OLG's eighth-graders won the stock market program during the 2023-2024 school year. We're so proud of them!

Brush Creek

Through Big Shoulders' partnership with Brush Creek Camp, students have the opportunity to travel to Saratoga, Wyoming to try new experiences, grow in friendships, and enjoy the outdoors!

Farm and Frolic

Big Shoulders provides students with opportunities for out-of-state adventures to farms, orchards, and more!

 

Our students love the opportunity to take a break from the city and experience the outdoors.
