Oakland International High School

Oakland International High School opened in August 2007 with the support of the Internationals Network of Public Schools, Oakland Unified School District, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The school targets a population of students, newly arrived immigrants, who have historically been underserved nationally, in California, and in Oakland.

At Oakland International, no student is anonymous. Each grade level has only 100 students. Our small size and our team structure allow personalization, growth, and success for our students. In their first two years at Oakland International, students remain with the same team of 5 teachers. In their junior and senior years, seniors will have opportunities for internships and community service in different settings, from businesses to government offices to community organizations.  All students participate in our multi-media California Partnership Academy that gives students the technology skills required for college and careers in the 21st century.
