Tomorrow, Friday, June 19, OUSD schools will be closed in observance of Juneteenth.

Juneteenth honors June 19, 1865, when freedom was finally announced to more than 250,000 enslaved Black Americans in Texas, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.

This year, OUSD’s Juneteenth message honors Oakland’s powerful legacy of Black freedom, organizing, and community, from West Oakland’s Pullman porters and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters to C.L. Dellums, Seventh Street, and the Black students, families, educators, and community members who continue to carry that legacy forward today.

We invite you to read the full message on our website, watch KDOL’s video from this year’s Oscar Wright Celebration of African American Excellence, and explore resources to learn more about Juneteenth and Oakland’s Black history.

Happy Juneteenth, OUSD.

The Mack Family showed up strong for the McClymonds High School groundbreaking. 🧡🖤

OUSD recently celebrated the start of a major campus transformation at McClymonds High School, the School of Champions. The project will bring updated classrooms, engineering labs, athletic spaces, outdoor areas, accessibility improvements, upgraded building systems, a modernized cafeteria, and more to one of Oakland’s most historic school communities.

Students, staff, alumni, families, Board Directors, district leaders, construction partners, and community supporters came together to mark the moment and celebrate what is ahead for Mack.

Thank you to Oakland voters for making this work possible through Measure Y, and to everyone who came out to celebrate McClymonds and the future of the campus.

🎓 It was a big day for our Esperanza Elementary Eaglets! 🦅

Esperanza Elementary TK-5 had two special milestones to celebrate, with our youngest students marking their next step into kindergarten and our 5th graders closing out their elementary school years.

The Esperanza community had so much to celebrate, from our youngest students receiving their kindergarten certificates to our 5th graders getting ready for middle school. There were caps, leis, flowers, proud families, and lots of big smiles all around.

Congratulations to all of our Esperanza Eaglets! We are so proud of you and excited to see you take flight into your next chapter. ❤️💛

We’re continuing our OUSD promotion and graduation coverage with a special celebration from Montera Middle School PTO, where 8th-grade students were cheered on by proud families, teachers, staff, and classmates as they marked the end of middle school and the start of their next chapter.

Congratulations, Montera 8th graders! We are so proud of you and can’t wait to see you keep charging ahead in high school. 🎉
