Welcome to ORES!

At Ottawa Region Educational Services (ORES), we believe learning should do more than just fill minds. It should spark imagination, build confidence, and reflect the diverse voices of our communities. Whether you're just starting your educational journey or supporting someone else’s, ORES is here to walk beside you with support that’s grounded, practical, and personal.

ORES is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping learning communities succeed. Our programs are developed by experienced educators who understand the diverse needs of classrooms in the Ottawa area. Whether you're a teacher searching for innovative strategies, a student in need of extra support, or a parent looking for resources to stay involved, ORES is here to support your journey.

We’re not about cookie-cutter solutions. We’re about connection.

What makes ORES stand out? We value equity, innovation, and belonging, not just as fancy terms but as a commitment. Every resource that we create responds to a real problem encountered by real people in our region. We don’t just provide tools, we build partnerships that make education meaningful, relevant, and deeply human.

• Interested in STEAM pathways?

• Looking for ways to better support multilingual students?

• Want classroom strategies that reflect inclusive, trauma-informed practices?

ORES delivers all that and more, because education today must evolve with the needs of those it serves.

ORES is here to give you the tools, resources, and direction you need to make learning inspiring, relevant, and meaningful, regardless of where you are in your educational journey. Learn how we're promoting education in the Ottawa area, one student at a time, by visiting our programs page.
