Making the Grade is OMNI BANK's inspiring and idea-sharing program designed to highlight successful education programs, curricula, students and teachers in Orleans, Jefferson, St. Tammany and St. John parishes.  Teachers and principals nominate these progressive and innovative educational programs and the winners of the program are featured in a campaign sponsored by OMNI BANK.  OMNI's spokesman is Quarterback, Drew Brees, an athletic and academic award-winning student athlete during his years at Purdue University.

Officials at OMNI BANK, the largest bank headquartered in Jefferson Parish, chose to co-sponsor the campaign because they wanted to heighten awareness of the many positive things that are happening in local schools.  OMNI, an independent community bank, has a long, strong history of involvement in various public service projects throughout Southeast Louisiana.    

Participation in the program is simple.   Teachers, principals, students, or parents complete a nomination form detailing the innovative, successful programs or projects that are making a difference in education at a local school and submit the form to via fax to (504) 378-3793. 

To learn more, please review the Making the Grade Packet.  At OMNI BANK, we are looking forward to seeing how your school is Making the Grade.
