Sharon Lewis was a remarkable and giving individual who touched the lives of countless people. Through her service with the Ogden School Foundation, she certainly influenced for good the lives of innumerable children in the Ogden School District, providing them with opportunities, particularly in the arts, that they would have otherwise not received.

We have created an endowment in her memory called the Sharon Rich Lewis Endowment for the Arts, which will continue to support the projects Sharon held near and dear to her heart. Thus far, we have received $20,000 in pledges and donations, but we need your help to reach our goal of $100,000 to help us honor her memory. If you would like to make a donation in Sharon's memory to help us reach our goal, visit our Donation Page by clicking here.

Thank you to the Ron McBride Foundation for partnering with us to provide these funds to establish the Healthy Learners by Design Program at Ogden High. This program aims to support positive behavior through programs such as Achievement Club which supports at risk youth, the AVID program which focuses on planning and organizational skills and best practice instructional strategies among teachers, and intramural activities and nutrition to promote physical wellness. We appreciate the generous support of Coach McBride and his foundation members for the many donations they have made to the Ogden School District and for partnering with the Ogden School Foundation on this program for our students.
