    Hello, My name is Kimberly Leiva. I am a freshman at LPS, I have only been here for a couple months, and i have already seen myself staying here for all 4 Years of high school. I want to graduate from this school and eventually have my little sister apply here, our building is very clean so it keeps me focused. All the teachers help with keeping us on track.

I have truly enjoyed my time at this school and wouldn’t want my school closed.

    Hi I’m currently a junior at LPs Oakland and I think that the school should stay open because it give out a lot of opportunities. Some of the opportunities that LPS Oakland give to students are college courses . By student having this opportunity students get to have the experience of taking a college class so when they do go to college they have an expectation of what to expect. LPS Oakland also also offers the student a better education, for example the teacher at LPS Oakland help the students under the material that they are teaching , due to this student’s get to have a better understanding of of what we are learning. I truly hope that LPS Oakland doesn’t close down because otherwise a lot of student won’t be able to get the opportunity that they offer at this school.

    I am currently an 11th grade student at lps oakland r&d . i think we must stay open for the reason that this school not only has a great community but also helps open doors for many students who weren’t allowed to express themselves in past schools. please keep lps oakland open!

    Im a current junior at LPS Oakland, and it has to stay open. This school has not only helped me academically but also personally. During my time in LPS Oakland I have gone through a lot of changes in my personal life not only affecting my grades but me as a person. The teachers and staff have helped me academically as well in making sure I wouldn't burn out in my classes and also throughout my years they have offered various kinds of classes, courses and academic opportunities. The sense of community in this school is something I wouldn't trade for at an another school. I firmly believe that if I had gone to another school I wouldn't have been offered the same opportunities academically. This school has helped me a lot and it should really stay open, this school closing puts my future at risk with my goal of becoming the first in my family to go college. Keep the school open

    My name is Zach Ziegenhorn. I am a Social Science teacher at LPS Oakland R&D. I have witnessed this school time and time again support the students and community it serves. The administrators, teachers, and students have fostered a culture of striving for success. There have been challenges, but the school leadership has always been there to support me.
    I have joined many teams to help improve the school and make sure it strives for excellence.
    Closing this school would be a mistake and disrupt the lives of the students and community that the school serves.
