On Saturday, March 26, the OUSD Board of Education held a special meeting to review a presentation by MK Think regarding aligning the district's assets with its strategic initiatives. Click here to watch a video of the meeting.

From the memorandum for the meeting: "Among the key purposes of the District's Facilities Master Plan is to provide an academic environment for the Oakland community that will give every student, educator, and community member using our facilities the best possible opportunity for learning. Through implementation of the Facilities Master Plan, the District intends to improve the District's facilities in terms of structural integrity, safety, reliability of operating (mechanical) systems, access to modern resources, number and type of appropriate laboratories and specialized instruction rooms, opportunities for physical education, and attractiveness, such that the Oakland Public Schools are second to none. Operation of the District schools under the planned approach is intended to ensure safety, cleanliness, and orderliness for all individuals participating in the learning process. The basic facility needs of students such as proper lighting, functional roofs, noise control and well maintained buildings, not only convey the message that we value our students and teachers."
