Honor Hard Work

 

 

 

MATADOR PRIDE!  

 Oakland Charter High School’s (OCHS) goal is to provide a sound academic program that will foster essential skills and work ethic to all students whom choose to attend our schools. The skills, ethic and knowledge gained at OCHS , will be carried over to post high school life. OCHS will serve at least 150 students in the ninth to twelfth grades at full capacity.Considering the unemployment rate for people whom lack a degree or specified training, and the dropout rate correlated to the incarceration rates for minority and low income groups; the stakes are high!

 
Our Curriculum:   The curriculum will be demanding and the classes will be structured to prepare all for students for college.Classrooms will be small and structured; prioritized to prepare our students to compete in a competitive global marketplace.   The curriculum is designed to enhance the academic skills of our students by utilizing small, structured classrooms that will provide the organization, academic rigor, discipline and individualized attention necessary for success.  
 
Data Analysis: OCHS is a school that measures success first and foremost by qualitative data. We do not ascribe to test bias theories or that sort of philosophy. We will prepare our students for the rigors of the real world as best to our ability and review our practice continually by reviewing different forms of assessments and capturing vital statistics.
 
College Bound: We will provide a college preparatory curricular model and atmosphere for ALL students. We believe that college is the surest path out of poverty and violence for inner city youth, however it is unrealistic to fathom that all students will go to college. Our goal is to prepare them for the rigors of college which, therefore, will prepare our students for any post high school program that they seek. Our goal is college ready first!
