The mission of the El Reno Public School Foundation is to foster a culture of educational excellence within our community. Through our efforts. we elevate the classroom experience, provide avenues for scholarships, champion mentoring initiatives, and celebrate the achievements of outstanding alumni.

The Foundation will use these means to fulfill this mission:

  • Administer higher education scholarships to academically worthy El Reno High School graduates.
  • Create funds by involving the community in a public auction every two (2) years.
  • Advertise a Phantom Party, without festivities, for contributions to support the work of the Foundation.
  • Select annually three (3) distinguished alumni of El Reno High School, and honor them with plaques awarded during a recognition banquet.
