Ockley Green Middle School Capstone Field Trip

Ockley Green Middle School 8th Grade Capstone Dance Class invites your support of their end of the year trip to Las Vegas. In order for this trip to be a success we need the support of community members like you.

If you aren’t familiar with us, Ockley Green is a 6th -8th grade public middle school located along the Interstate Avenue corridor in North Portland. Ockley Green is a proud and diverse school with incredible teachers, committed parent volunteers and, most importantly, an amazing group of students.

The dancers have the opportunity to attend a live Jabbawockeez “Jreams” performance, meet the professional dance crew as well as take master classes from them. This is the second annual trip for Mr. Damon Keller’s Capstone Dancers. Through this wonderful experience, OGMS dancers will learn the value of performing arts. This diverse dance crew and it’s culturally relevant art allows our racially and ethnically diverse students to see themselves reflected in the dancers.

To ensure equity and broad access to this opportunity, students and their families will not incur cost for the field trip. We are seeking funds through public, private and individual donations, and fundraising opportunities through local businesses.
