20-2019 Submission Public Hearing by the Board of Education of Lighthouse Community Charter Public Schools - Lodestar: A Lighthouse Community Public School - Petition and Proposed Charter - Grades K-12 - July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2023 (2 Year Renewal).
I have been in this school for three years and they have supported me for all those years. This is the only school that helped me with my deaf ear problem. It has really helped being able to learn in class.
Hi my name is Emma and I am a 6th grader at Lodestar. Lodestar has made me grow a lot during the years that I have been here, I love how the teachers support me and give me the confidence to keep going.
I am a special education teacher at Lodestar Upper School. Even in the middle of a pandemic, we are providing our students who have exceptional learning needs with avenues to access grade level content and ample one-one-one and small group support. Perhaps more importantly, our school consistently conveys to our students a deep belief in their ability to learn and succeed, regardless of learning difference. I have built powerful, trusting relationships with the families of my students through regular Zoom meetings, phone calls and texts. This has been especially important given that we are not on campus, and our partnerships with families ensure that students have what they need in order to learn in their home environments. The teachers and administrators have gone far beyond what I have seen in other schools in order to support our students in special education. Lodestar is an exceptional school for exceptional young people. I urge you to renew our charter.
My name is Lisbeth Sanchez and i'm a 9th grader at this school, And my wish is to let lodestar continue their mission of being one of oakland's charter schools. in lodestar they teach more different than what my most recent school did, because in lodestar the teachers actually care for the students and are willing to help when we need help. so please let lodestar continue being a charter school

Hello, I'm a 7th grader at lodestar. Lodestar should be renewed because it has given me a chance to learn more about the situation going on in the world. They support every student in their learning. I like the school and I support the renewal.
Hi my name is Luis and I'm a 9th grader here at Lodestar and I would not like Lodestar closed for any reason.This is my third year here and Lodestar is not only a school,but a family.Don't get me wrong we do learn and get prepared for the real world,but we have fun by doing it.We as a community take care of each other and welcome everyone who steps in Lodestar because we support everybody.So please don't close my favorite school.When I was in 7th grade in a different school I was scared because I thought to myself that this school is not for me.But my parents sent me to Lodestar thinking it would be like any other school,but boy was I wrong.Everyone came and welcomed me and I began to make friends in a matter seconds.That's how much Lodestar means to me and to everyone who comes here to learn and to have fun.

My name is Biehvana Castellon and i'm a 6th grader at Lodestar Middle School. I was one of the founding students of Lodestar,meaning i was at Lodestar when they first opened. I have made so many friends here and i have lots of wonderful memories that started right here. I have a strong connection with my teachers as well,as if they were my guardians who took care of me and watched me grow. Lodestar is my home and i would be devastated if it got shut down. Save Lodestar!!
I am a Lodestar mom and my daughter is a founding Lodestar student currently in 6th grade. Lodestar is an amazing school that needs to stay open. We have so much support, engagement, communication and love from everyone there. My daughter loves her school, she's in middle school but she cannot wait to attend the new highschool that just opened up this year. These kids are our future and Lodestar needs to stay open so they can continue to make their future brighter. #lodestarlove
i think you should keel are school open because it would be hard to find another school to go to and then the work that they taught us would go to wast because we will also miss a lot of school work at the other school so please do not shut down this school.
