Knowledge is Power

Education Depends on Schooling

Charter Schools Are the Way to Go!

My daughter attended public school for five years, there they said her test scores were among the highest. I placed my child in charter school, they said her test scores were below average. I love education and teach my child at home on a daily basis. I realized something wasn't right. I didn't believe my child knew some of the things she should at her age. I knew I had to take my child out of public schools and I 'm glad I did.
East Oakland Leadership Academy is the charter school my daughter now attends, it's great. For P.E. they go to Karate school across the street. After school the kids can go to a tutor or Chess club. I went to private school, public school, and magnet school as a kid.
In private school I received a good education and I knew I wanted my kid to have a good education too. But the price of Private schools doesn't fit my budget, so I went with the next best thing. The charter school my daughter now attends has only 138 students for grades K-8 which is a benefit.
The staff there are great, friendly people with warm smiles for everyone. I help out at the school when my time permits, and my daughter's teacher is always challenging me to a chess game. When she was in public school there was always a substitute teacher and the kids weren't studying. I love the creed at East Oakland Leadership Academy,"Failure is not an option." If you can get your Children in a charter school don't hesitate, my daughter and nephew attend there together.
Public schools are still passing kids on even though the child may not be ready. If you do switch your kids' school, and their test scores aren't where they should be, don't be upset with your child. Public schools aren't all the same, some may be better than others, but look into charter schools I think there pretty good.
