Live Oak School operates a coed special education program for students ages 5 - 18 in grades K-12. Live Oak School is certified by the California Department of Education Nonpublic School and Agencies Unit. Live Oak School is under contract with the following school districts and educational agencies:
Live Oak provides our students with the best possible learning environment. Our average class size is 8-10. Our staff-to-student ratio is 1: 5. Each classroom is staffed with a full-time teacher and instructional paraprofessional. Our small class sizes and excellent staff ratio allow us to focus on helping our students develop skills and confidence they will use for years to come.
Academic skills, behavioral interventions, social skills training, and self-efficacy development are some of the tools used at Live Oak School to ensure the success of our students and provide them the opportunity for a bright future.
Teachers at Live Oak School utilize thematic instruction. By organizing the subject matter curricula around a theme, units of study take our students on a journey through language arts, science, social studies/history, and mathematics.
Parent involvement is a priority at Live Oak School. To help facilitate communication between parents/guardians and school personnel, a variety of methods are used. Daily and weekly reports, incident and accident reports, schedule reminders, IEP goals progress reports and report cards are a sampling of the communication methods used by Live Oak School to help keep parents/guardians informed and involved. Regular contact by the director and school counselor provide the personal contact necessary for a home/school partnership. Our Parent/Residential In-service is offered three times a year to provided strategies to parents/guardians/guardians to assist the student in their success at home and school.
