Dear Oakland Academy Parents and Community Members: We are pleased to present you with the Annual Education Report (AER) which provides key information on the 2009-2010 educational progress for Oakland Academy. The AER addresses the complex reporting information required by federal and state laws. The school’s report contains information about student assessment, Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) and teacher quality. If you have any questions about the AER, please contact Henry Winter, Oakland Academy principal or Paul Doersam, Director of Schools for assistance. The AER is available for you to review electronically by visiting the following web site: www.Oakland-Academy.org or you may review a copy found in the office of the principal at Oakland Academy. Oakland Academy is proud to say it continues to make Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) with an overall grade of A. Oakland Academy has made AYP since inception of the program. The report card provides an assessment of several measures of Oakland Academy’s performance. A breakdown of information can be found in the table below. |

| Oakland Academy has earned the composite grade of A for the third year in a row. The school continues to improve programs and practice through the evaluation and implementation of the School Improvement Plan. We’ve discussed the processes and programs within the Academy that impact student achievement. Oakland continues to work with stakeholders including our management company (Foundation for Behavioral Resources), authorizer (Grand Valley State University), and our school board and parents to improve upon programs and services.
We pride ourselves on parent communication and involvement. 100% of Oakland families attend fall and spring parent-teacher conferences, but we believe conferencing with parents happens daily. Each Monday we provide all parents in each grade level a preview report of the week’s objectives in each subject area. At the end of the week, parents are provided a report on their individual student’s progress on the week’s objectives. Parents are engaged in their child’s learning and have real data regarding what their children have mastered each week. As a Public School Academy (PSA), Oakland Academy is a public school of choice. Families in any district or county may enroll their child at Oakland. Oakland Academy continues to strive for excellence through program evaluation and collaboration within the school and local community. We will continue to provide quality education to all Oakland families and work with all stakeholders to ensure all children succeed. |

Sincerly,
