Leadership Priorities

A framework for equitable, transparent, and effective Oakland Schools

Measuring Student Outcomes

Every decision should move Oakland students forward. Board decisions must be assessed on whether they improve well-being, opportunity, and outcomes for all Oakland students.

Strategic & Transparent Use of Resources

Every dollar should directly support students and schools. Clear fiscal consideration and measurable impact in every board decision.

Safe & Supportive Schools

Students learn best when they feel safe, seen, and supported, through neighborhood partnerships, parental involvement, and consistent behavioral standards.
