Re: Job Corps as alternative to high school for 16-year-old? (July 2004)
This is in response to Tunisha's inquiry about the job
corps. There is a new charter high school in Oakland
called Oasis, that is opening in the Fall. It is
specifically for kids who have dropped-out of high school
and has a variety of interesting options for teens who want
to give it another try in a unique setting. It will be in
the new Fruitvale Center - right next to the Fruitvale BART
station, therefore very accessible transportation.
Their philosophy is, ''We know that a dropout is an
unconventional person who chooses an unconventional way of
life. Oasis High School and it's students are hope for
education and for tomorrow. ''
It sounds like an interesting option for some of the teens
we know and work with. I attended an orientation and was
very impressed.
They are having information nights at Laney College on July
20th & 27th and August 3rd & 10th. The link for more
information and applications for the school is:
