Francophone Charter School Oakland

Hello,

Can anyone share any thoughts about Francophone charter school of Oakland, preferably from this past year 2017-2018. We just got of the waitlist and are considering starting this year. Thank you!

We're really happy with the school overall, for two reasons.  First is we really enjoy the other families and the sense of community.  Second is our kid has picked up so much French in two years there.  And we don't speak any French at home, either.  Since it's still a new school the parents are really involved and I think that's why there's such a strong community.  Of course like any school some parents are a lot more involved than others, so you don't have to volunteer all the time, but you will be asked to.  There's been a lot of turnover with staff which has been hard but from what we've heard, that's very typical of a new school or start up of any kind, really.
