Oakland School for the Arts Find Your Voice

• Alliance for Parents and Teachers
  The Alliance of Parents and Teachers (APT) is a volunteer organization of parents, guardians and faculty at Oakland School for the Arts (OSA). Our mission is to support the artistic and academic programs for the students of OSA through volunteerism, fundraising support, communication and enhancement of school culture.

• Connect with Konstella
  The APT uses Konstella as its communications tool to keep families in the loop on weekly news, school announcements, calendar items and more. Konstella also allows parents to communicate directly with each other or with groups of parents, and connect with parents with similar interests through the use of “Social Groups”. Konstella newsletters are compiled by APT volunteers and are not an official communication tool of OSA.

Lunch is available in the Student Center daily at lunchtime. High School students may leave campus for lunch.

• Discipline: The goal of the OSA discipline program is to ensure that student behavior supports an environment in which academic achievement and artistic excellence can flourish. OSA staff will communicate these expectations regularly at student meetings and assemblies. Our application of “discipline” is not simply intended to deliver punishments for breaking rules, it is founded on the practice of community building, self-assessment, and self-discipline. The assumption is that most minor disruptive behavior and consequences are handled by the classroom teacher, and that students are referred to Katy Zaugg, kzaugg@oakarts.org when they do not meet classroom expectations and procedures.
