Live Oak Charter School Multi-purpose room April 14, 2016
Mission & Program
To ensure the humanity and potential of its students through an education resonant with their unfolding awareness and capacities, and supportive of the full and integrated development of body, heart, and mind. LOCS provides a K-8 program inspired by Waldorf education to children and families of Petaluma and surrounding communities. Waldorf inspired education is a developmental approach to learning that cultivates the innate capacities of each child through age appropriate curriculum. Live Oak educates the whole child – head, heart, and hands, through an education that integrates each child’s creative, intellectual, emotional, physical and social domains. Live Oak offers an
interdisciplinary liberal arts program where art, music, and movement are integrated with core academic instruction. Exploration of the natural world, human culture, language and mathematics enlivens curiosity which is the foundation of intellectual growth, conceptual flexibility, empathy and sense of connectedness.

the genesis of several over-arching themes that drove policy changes, initiatives, and new programs over the last 5 years. A common theme, and one echoed in survey comments collected this spring, was the sincere longing for greater diversity in our community and greater integration of diversity in our curriculum.
In this case, diversity refers to both cultural and ethnic diversity as well as other forms of identity and expression including gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic, religion and physical capability. Other elements of personal and group identity are also
contained with the notion of diversity. Needless to say, diversity is a concept that contains so much, it is nigh on impossible to adequately summarize the many layers and intersections of it that we experience in our daily lives.
For brevity’s sake, I would like to discuss ethnic/racial diversity and gender diversity issues at Live Oak. Please note that our awareness, as a staff and school board, extends far beyond these two domains. We are actively working to be a secular,
pluralist, democratic educational institutional that is a welcoming place for all people and we acknowledge the myriad contexts that compose our school community of over 1,000 students, family and friends.
Given a Waldorf heritage that arose out of a largely Eurocentric and Judeo-Christian philosophical context, it is our task in this modern era to revitalize Waldorf principles through a global, multi-cultural lens and to re-imagine a philosophical foundation that embraces a modern vocabulary and secular articulation of Steiner’s developmental picture. To this end, we are concerned not only with the integration of nuanced cultural literacy within our curriculum, but cultivating a demographic representation of diversity within our community itself.
CURRICULUM
On the curriculum and school culture side of this mission, public schools have come a long way. The trending focus of modern diversity education is cultural literacy, which is a model that moves beyond the hamstrung “tolerance” programs from the 80’s and 90’s to one of sophisticated cross cultural empathy and understanding. This has always been a goal of Waldorf education, though our contemporary understanding makes us aware of the embedded cultural bias that has left its fingerprints on traditional curricula. As such, faculty and staff are constantly reviewing our thematic units and lessons to widen their perspective and eliminate cultural bias, while remaining true to the developmental need that each block is designed to address.
public Waldorf school, ethical behavior, courage and leadership are the secular themes, and may include stories of John Muir, Gandhi, Eleanor Roosevelt, Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks and Dolores Huerta as well as figures such as St. Francis de Asisi, Native American trickster tales, Avalokiteśvara, stories from the Panchatantra and other significant mythological allegories.
Particular attention has been given to diversifying our blocks and decentering the narrative from Eurocentric sources. The Spanish missions in California are a staple of 4th grade curriculum, even in mainstream public schools. At Live Oak, the history of the Spanish missions is investigated through the varied perspectives of those that
experienced it. This is a shift that welcomes the complexity that a more honest picture presents. In observing our fourth grade students, it is clear that they understand the ethical and sociological implications of this chapter of our history, which should give us all hope.
On the gender and sexual orientation front, the past several years have presented opportunities for staff to develop strategies of support for our students. As gender fluidity has hit the mainstream and our understanding of how to support our students improves, staff has held conferences with parents and therapists to build affirmative structures for our children. Through parent and faculty initiative, Live Oak has spent the current year exploring the ways that gender and sexual orientation are made visible or invisible in our curriculum and school culture.
Given the public and personal health imperative to support our students, Live Oak Faculty recently hosted a panel from Positive Images, a support organization for LGBT youth in Sonoma County. This provided faculty an opportunity to ask the most common question “what would help students who are struggling with questions of gender identity and sexual orientation in the school environment?” Through this effort Live Oak Faculty has developed several projects that are readying for implementation. The Positive Images panel will be returning in May to present to middle school students. Further, a student leadership group is being formed with the support of our SEEDS counselor Anna Frattollilo that will be tasked with designing school wide supports for students, both on gender and orientation issues, as well as diversity issues generally.
Positive school culture requires active leadership by elders and students to build
acceptance and validation for all of us in the community. Live Oak uses its class circles and assemblies as opportunities to educate students on identity-affirming social norms. Working with students to eliminate culturally insensitive remarks, or denigrating

*Petaluma City demographic information is based on the Federal Census data that disaggregates race from ethnicity, thus Latino/Hispanic is considered a sub-category of the others. The total for the city exceeds 100% because the category for Hispanic/Latino is double counted within the other categories. For California data, there is a separate category for Latino/Hispanic that is discrete and exclusive (based on primary identification) thus all ethnicity categories in the state data should collectively add up to 100% of the population. Sources: US Census Bureau, California Department of Education
As observed in Fig 1, our demographic profile does not match our neighboring schools, quite to the contrary, we significantly underrepresent the Hispanic/Latino community within Petaluma. Having been an administrator at a mainstream public school in Rohnert Park with a demographic that was more in line with Valley Vista, I have considered long the reasons for the different profile at Live Oak.
Given Waldorf education’s recent movement from the private school world to the mainstream public sphere it seems that the current demographic is indicative of a “school of choice” model, wherein high interest Waldorf families who already know about our school pursue enrollment and become the largest demographic by default. If then, “high interest” is the primary determination for enrollment, one would expect that as Waldorf education engages further in mainstream discourse, and its success in building a healthy environment and supportive education for youth is more widely understood, we will see the demographic shift to be more reflective of the broad community we inhabit. Indeed, the recent iPad crisis that has hit our neighboring Petaluma City Schools but not Live Oak is an endorsement of the course we are
pursuing. Consequentially, our in district applications have increased significantly which may represent the growing awareness of our neighbors that better models for our children should and do exist.
come to know the school and share their experiences with their own community networks, so too, the demographics of the school will more democratically reflect the presence of committed parents from all communities, regardless of race, ethnicity, class, religion or language.
Gradual shifts in the awareness of Waldorf Education are one of the trends that will benefit the diversity of our campus, but we must be active participants in the process of diversification and inclusivity. We must look candidly at our own institution and
community to ensure that obstacles to diversification and accessibility do not persist. The Faculty, School Board and Administration is consciously working towards this goal by reviewing our practices from the ground up. Live Oak has implemented significant policy changes in past years and current to eliminate obstacles for families that have previously been underserved by Live Oak.
As described above, one of the most basic obstacles is awareness. Even today, many families in our immediate neighborhood are unaware that Live Oak exists, let alone understand the merits of its program. Previously hidden on the fairgrounds without exterior signage, and frequently confused for a private school, Live Oak has worked diligently to elevate its profile in the community, advertising in both English and Spanish language periodicals, placing signage outside the fairgrounds, hosting bilingual
outreach activities at the public library (Thank you Ms. Cantor and Ms. Rafael) and offering over 15 guided tours throughout the year with translation services available to those who need it.
From the policy side, Live Oak has instituted priority enrollment for our local
neighborhood (one of the most diverse neighborhoods in Petaluma). In addition, Live Oak has committed itself to providing a completely free and accessible Waldorf program including heavy general fund investment in instruments, field trips and course materials. Live Oak has also revised its enrollment application and lottery to ensure that our
process is free from risk of discrimination.
In all these activities, our objective has been to ensure that there are no socio-economic or language barriers to entry. In this endeavor we have translated major documents into Spanish including our school handbook and outreach materials. We have also
eliminated any remnants of the class fee model that existed from the charter school’s early days. And though the Live Oak Foundation pledge program is an essential support to our school, its fundraising efforts are entirely voluntary and its revenue is used
democratically throughout the budget to support the school in total.
soon, though we are unsure if we will be ready at the start of the 2016-2017 school year.
To date, we have yet to see a significant uptick in our ethnic diversity. A hopeful sign, at least in some form, is that more of our new enrollees are coming from within our own district. This may be indicative that the word is getting out from the high interest
Waldorf community to reach a broader population of curious parents looking for a model that is truly exceptional.
Of course, with any demographic shift, there are fears that may arise: Will our broader appeal water down our commitment to a natural, media mindful, interdisciplinary childhood? Will the school be able to continue to offer its rich curriculum while
simultaneously meeting the needs of second language learners and socio-economically disadvantaged youth? Given my experience in public education generally and Live Oak specifically, I believe success is not only possible but inevitable. There is too much common commitment to excellence in this community for us to fail. Further, the revised State funding model for schools (LCFF) now provides additional funding within its
calculation to provide support services for second language learners and disadvantaged youth.
Our community cherishes our connection to each other, to our planet and to our collective heritage as human beings. Underlying this pursuit of connection is a
commitment to ethical livelihood, to democracy, and to a pluralist society that endeavors tirelessly to put violence, oppression and poverty behind us. Our dream is for our
children to grow up in a community that recognizes the wisdom that grows within all of us, nursed into existence from the unique perspective and trajectory of our experience.
As Theodore Parker and Martin Luther King Jr. surmised: “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice.” May we endeavor together for such an end.

Dear 6th Grade Parents,
Every year as the 6th grade year comes to a close, Live Oak provides an update on the
requirements to satisfy enrollment in the 7th grade. 7th grade is a gateway year for
immunization requirements, with the Tdap vaccine added into the schedule. In addition, as SB277 has significantly changed policy on Personal & Religious Belief Exemptions (PBE’s), many students who have previously met eligibility through this waiver will no longer meet eligibility for enrollment.
As of January 1, 2016 new PBE’s may not be filed. So too, previously filed PBE’s will expire upon the student reaching 7th grade. This year’s 6th grade class is the first to come
into contact with these new regulations. As such, Live Oak has audited its records and compiled a “Notice of Immunizations Needed” (attached) to inform you of the status of the immunization schedule we have on file for your child.
If you are pursuing the completion of the vaccination schedule, or if you intend to file a medical exemption, the school must be provided such documentation in order to initiate enrollment for 2016-2017. For 2016-2017, there are three pathways to eligibility:
Unconditional Entrance, Conditional Entrance, and Medical Exemption Waiver.
Unconditional Entrance is met by having a complete, up to date, immunizations and supporting records.
Conditional Entrance is met by having an active immunization plan. This plan must indicate which vaccinations have been completed and which vaccinations courses are in progress. In progress courses must demonstrate recent doses (either initial doses or subsequent boosters) that comply with frequency guidelines.
Medical Exemption is met by providing a letter from your physician that notes the type of exemption for each vaccination course that is being waived; either temporary or permanent. If temporary, the letter must include the date of expiry for the exemption. The physician must also state the reason(s) for the exemption in the letter.
With the start of 7th grade only 4 months away, it is important that a plan be developed
with your physician to meet eligibility. We are not able to admit your child into 7th grade
unless your child presents documentary proof that they meet eligibility criteria. Documentation is due to the office by August 1st.
Please check the attached “Notice of Immunizations Needed” to be sure that our records are up to date. We ask that you notify the office with your intended plan and any additional immunization documentation as soon as possible. Please contact the office at 707-762-9020, or via email; [email protected].
Warm regards,
