    Thank you, OUSD staff and superintendent for recommending Lodestar for a 2-year charter. Thank you for hearing the powerful and important voices and stories of our young people, families, and staff, and the ways in which Lodestar is changing the narratives of our Sobrante Park and adjacent neighborhoods' children and families. For these reasons and more, I call on the Board to vote Yes to renewing Lodestar’s charter.

    I have two boys at Lodestar - one in sixth grade and one in eighth grade. This is their third year at Lodestar. Before we found Lodestar, we were looking at moving out of Oakland because their learning needs were not being met at our neighborhood OUSD schools. One of our kids has a 504 plan that I begged for at our OUSD school but that fell on deaf ears. We have been thrilled that there is a public school that is teaching our kids using different teaching methods using true individualized learning methods - meeting them where they are for their learning, working with the community to make learning holistic, and empowering kids to own their learning. We did not find any other public schools in the area that had these innovative learning methods. The boys are happy, engaged, learning, and growing. Please renew Lodestar.
