Big Ideas & Higher Opportunities

Big Ideas

Big Idea Grants help Oak Grove Elementary School fund items or supplies that further the educational experience.

Higher Opportunities

Higher Opportunities for Teachers (HOT) supports Oak Grove Elementary faculty and staff members who want to engage in professional development experiences that go beyond those offered through DeKalb County and Oak Grove Elementary.

HOT initiatives support experiences that both align with the mission of OGE and positively impact student achievement through professional development.
