Oakland School Mission

The entire staff of Oakland School is committed to creating a nurturing environment where students’ academic, emotional, and social needs are met. Because every child is unique and learns differently, we believe academic programs must be personalized for each student.

Our goal is to help students achieve their potential so they will develop a love of learning, a firm sense of self-worth, and respect for themselves and others.

Guiding Principals

What Oakland Parents Are Saying…

“Before finding this school, we felt like we were stuck between two options that didn’t truly meet our daughter’s needs—a traditional classroom where she wasn’t getting enough individualized support, and special education services that didn’t align with what we were hoping for. Discovering this school felt like finding exactly what we had been searching for all along.
The approach here is both fresh and innovative, offering the right balance of support, understanding, and academic challenge. Anne has truly thrived in this environment—not only academically, but personally. She has been exposed to experiences she likely would have never sought out on her own and has been meaningfully included in social situations that have completely opened up her world.
She is more confident, curious, and willing to try new things than ever before. We are incredibly grateful for a place that recognizes each child’s unique needs and creates an environment where they can truly succeed.”

B. Flick, Oakland Parent
"As an alumni parent and grandparent, I can say that Oakland School saved our son and grandson. Both boys could not keep up even in top-rated public schools with LD resources. They shut down and became belligerent, sad children at school. Oakland School gave them the confidence and tools to become successful students in high school and life-long learners with a joy in reading."

Ken B., Oakland Parent & Grandparent
"The summer program at Oakland School was truly an amazing experience for our daughter. She made so much progress, not just academically, but socially as well."
Amber J., Oakland Parent
"A wonderful, nurturing environment and individualized programs means every student can thrive academically and socially."
Kaye P., Oakland Parent
"Oakland has changed my child's life. He is happy to go to school, confident and eager to learn. He loves the teachers, fellow students and atmosphere. Oakland understands children who struggle to learn. They respect all students and teach individually to each child's needs... I would recommend Oakland to any parent searching for help with a struggling child."
Andrea M., Oakland Parent
