The OASIS Programs have been designed to take public education to the public. OASIS Programs are offered in schools in each of the 20 communities of schools. Students and their families, as well as the community at-large, may participate in the OASIS Program closest to their home or one housed in their child's school community. Programs are designed to involve students, parents and the community in meaningful and significant ways, such as tutoring, mentoring, music and art enrichment activities, as well as other programs offered specifically for adults.
OASIS programs offer after-school acedemic enrichment and personal growth activities for students, as well as parenting and career development activities for adults. Staffed by individuals who volunteer their time to assist children and their families, the programs provide Opportunities for Achievement, Support, Involvement and Success.Programs offered in the OASIS centers include, but not limited to:
