PLEASE WELCOME MRS. MORRISON

We are delighted to announce that Superintendent Johnson-Trammel has appointed Mrs. Staci Ross-Morrison as the new Principal of Dewey Academy. Mrs. Ross-Morrison has a wealth of experience in Oakland’s schools having worked at Oakland Tech the last 15 years, of which 8 years were as Assistant Principal and the last 7 years as Principal. Her deep commitment to staff and students gives us great confidence that she is the right leader to support continued growth for Dewey’s teachers and students.

Please join us in welcoming Mrs. Morrison to Dewey Academy!

WORK PERMITS

Dear Oakland Community,

Due to shelter-in-place, all work permits for Oakland students will be processed centrally through an online process. As of today, the process has changed from being based in Google Forms to a more user-friendly and streamlined interface.

For Summer Work Permits, students can request Work Permits on or after May 29, 2020. Summer permits expire on August 16. As of now, we anticipate work permit applications to still be processed electronically at that time. Applications for schoolyear work permits will be accepted on or after August 10, 2020. 

As of today, OUSD is not processing work permits for Charter and Private schools. If you have questions or need support please contact workpermits@ousd.org.

Dewey Academy is a Health and Fitness Pathway school.  Please click on the link below to hear more about our program, and see how our students have become excited about all the new opportunities.
