Blue Oak Charter School

Our child went to another public school in this community for two years before coming to Blue Oak. The difference in his increased level of self-esteem and willingness to learn has been simply astounding. This school does a remarkable job of building a child's capacity for lifelong learning.

Kid, heart centered school that could use more money to make their dreams a reality. They have the will, the mindset and the tenacity.

My grandson has had a happy, well rounded education at Blue Oak where his artistic talents have been encourage as well has his reading and writing skills. Wonderful school.

It's a Waldorf Charter School which makes it available to all children. We need alternative schools to support diversity!

It's a Waldorf Charter school. The kids love it, the parents love it, the teachers love it.

Waldorf encompasses head, heart and hands; The love the children (and parents) experience fills your heart with warmth; Academics is introduced at an appropriate age so they actually enjoy learning; All of the singing they do together really bonds the class together; It's an environment which helps children to thrive, be comfortable with who they are, and learn to love, care for, and get along with their peers. It's been my greatest joy to watch our once shy daughter blossom there. Her beaming smile shows deep contentment.

I love the art, the music, and the teachers. I also love that every student is treated as equally valuable and important for whatever skills and talents they have. It's a holistic approach that really develops the children's self-esteem and builds on their strengths.

I am a founder of this school and so proud to say so! Neither of my kids have been fortunate enough to go but I love that it's an option for the community. The waldorf approach is a beautiful hands on way of educating the whole child through such aspects as cooking, gardening, movement, music, art, and foreign lang. Best of all, it is FREE!! Many waldorf schools are very expensive private schools and therefore limited in the number of children they can impact due to cost.
