The Campaign for Cardinal O'Hara High School
To ensure that new generations of students have the opportunity to experience the quality education that has been provided for nearly 40 years, Cardinal O'Hara High School proudly announces the first capital campaign in the school's history. This effort will raise $4 million for three critical areas that answer today's challenges.

We will address immediate and long-term needs in the areas of academics, athletics and activities. This will include the refurbishing and upgrading of all classrooms and labs, the establishment of a tuition assistance fund, the construction of a new multi-purpose athletic stadium and the replacement of the seating in the auditorium and gymnasium.
