Good and blessed day. To who may concern:
From our family to everyone one of the persons on the OUSD board.
Today I here to advocate for Lodestar school, and to speak as a paren, neighbor and member of the Comunity. Please allow us to remain open, and keep shining as we been doing since day one.
My family come on board 3 fabulous year’s ago, really un experience on charter schools, but quickly realized that we are on good hands. At lodestar we always learning about comunity and integrity, and we been learning a lot more as a part of a community on new terms of education, as we no only been challenged to a new form of educatio due to COVID-19. Today I ask for my 2 students and my family please let us keep open for many years to come. And let a lot more family’s to discover what a truly quality of education and community cares is all about.
I have been an educator in Oakland for 15 years. I am proud to be a founding staff member of Lodestar and to have served with a dedicated group of teachers who place students first. Our families are an empowered vocal community that gives our school feedback on how to improve for their children and models agency for their students. They show that their voices count! Our students are the changemakers we need for Oakland to have a bright diverse future. Lodestar is committed to making this bright future a reality for our school and all the Town.

Please keep lighthouse Lodestar charter schools open !! My daughter is so happy at lodestar she’s happy to go to school everyday and that says a lot about the staff and teachers at lodestar !! Please keep them open !!
I support Lodestar 100% Both of my girl’s love going to Lodestar. Lodestar is Famliy all the school members are very Supportive. Mr Tony the Elementary Principal is always making sure that the students have what they for Learning needs.
I support lodestar because I have attended for two years. I wish to continue going to lodestar along with my community. I have learned many positive things at lodestar and now that my little brother is attending kindergarten it will be nice to grow up together at lodestar. Please help us keep the school open we all deserve an education no matter what school you go too. I support lodestar a great learning environment.
I am writing in strong support of Lodestar’s Charter renewal. As a pediatrician in Oakland for 25 years, I‘ve seen firsthand how some kids struggle in school unless they have more individualized support. I have volunteered with Lodestar School since it opened in 2016. I’ve seen students eager to learn and teachers and staff dedicated to equity in education. Lodestar deserves a renewal because it is a high quality option for students in Oakland.
I have been a teacher at Lodestar since its first year in operation. I find myself wanting to return at the end of each academic year because I believe in our school's mission, its core values, and I have faith in our leadership. Lodestar is unlike other schools I've worked at because we genuinely put our students and families at the center and are committed to meeting their needs; the sense of community and belonging at Lodestar is strong and continuing to grow. I fully support the charter renewal.
We love the lodestar school and the community. My son is proud to study at Lodestar. We love all the staff. Keep us united by giving us a renewal contract of two and many more years to our great future at lodestar.
Lodstar has been here for 5 years.my kids have loved it.its been our second home.my kids are good education by this school.Lodestar is helping them get a future.
It is absolutely necessary that this charter be renewed The community is in need of Loadestar for our children, I happen to be a child care provider and a grandparent in the business of children, and I provide care for 14 children that attend Loadestar
It's an amazing school addressing the needs
Of the children and families in the community
I also think it's important that you are aware that Loadestar makes a difference working to ensure that students get an education during these most challenging times I can speak to this because I have so many others in my care that don't have the level of support that I see on a day to day basis
I've been a part of this school since conception
And one thing that has been consistent is this school's desire to do better for our kids Standing strong through adversities
A true diamond in the ruff given the opportunity, Loadestar will be a light in the community
Lodestar is the place where I grew up professionally. I support Lodestar for the charter renewal because I believe in their power to educate children. I have worked at Lodestar for half a year and I seen day by day how teachers and school personnel work hard to bring a high quality education to all the youth of Oakland.
Lodestar charter renewal is very important, not just for the families and staff. But the hundreds of students that find comfort in a school that support them in every way possible. As a mother of 4 that attended Lodestar. I found that you can talk to any staff member and feel that they will help you in anyway possible so that your child gets the help they need. So please help us in keeping Lodestar charter going for the future is in the hand of our children.
I am a founding parent of a Lodestar Charter School student. I am thankful for the relationships my son has gained over the years. He has a bond with not only his peers but his teachers and other Lodestar staff. “It takes a village to raise a child.” Lodestar has been that village for my son and family. Teachers and staff are always willing to go above and beyond to support him academically, socially and emotionally. One support that Lodestar has, which has worked well for my son, is math or reading groups that are rigorous and challenge him. From his experience, he said he likes Lodestar because the school is welcoming, helpful, lets you use technology to work independently and they teach you where you can understand. Lodestar has done right by our family and we fully support the charter renewal.
Hi I am a proud parent of 2 students who attend LodeStar I lived in Sobrante Park for over 10 years. My kids have attended Charter schools since they began school. My son who is in 7th grade now loves LodeStar and my daughter who entered the 6th grade has not had the opportunity to have learn onsite but only through distance learning like her teachers already. I love the school because they are always supportive and ALWAYS THERE TI HELP when needed. I loved the previous Charter school my kids attended because the staff CARED REALLY CARED ABOUT MY KIDS AND THAT IS THE SAME VIBE I GET FROM LODESTAR STAFF..
I always tell my kids ok I am dropping you of at school to your second set of parents, because I know they will be well cared for. I am so comfortable with the Principal Mr. Camarillo because he is always around the school I don't remember a day that I did not see him on site talking, hyping up, interacting with the students.
