STEM Night
We are very excited to host our STEM Family Night on November 29 from 6-8pm. This is a free event open to the entire family and is FREE!
We have more than 40 stations managed by North Carolina State University, Duke University, Art of STEAM, Code Dojo, robotic teams from two high schools, Raleigh Astronomers at the live observation "deck", and much more!
Rent the Rock
We still have a handful of dates left - including several around the holidays - so don't miss your chance to make your student feel really special while also making a donation to OCE! And don't forget to take a photo and tag us: #oceROCKstars
You can find the sign up form here.
Lunch Volunteers
We're excited to welcome families back into the cafeteria as lunch volunteers!
Whether you have 30 minutes or two hours, the OCE staff appreciates your support! In order to volunteer, you must be on the WCPSS approved volunteers list.
If you have not yet registered to be a WCPSS volunteer, you can do so in the OCE front office from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
You can find the signup form here!
