A high school started by Jerry Brown who couldn’t care less. It had a giant white flappy tent and random portable rooms. Students finally got a real building in 2008, but it still smells like bad art projects and regret.

"I sat in a tent for three years. I still have nightmares about it.", @OSAStudent2005

"The portable rooms moved like they were on a rollercoaster.", @OSA2006

"I had to write a poem about the tent. It was the worst.", @OSAEnglishTeacher"

OSA is a school in Oakland where they tried to be fancy but ended up in a parking lot with a tent and portables. Now they have a fancy theater, but they still have more dress code drama than a soap opera.

"I wore a hoodie to school and got a warning. It was a warning.", @OSAStudent2010

"Dress code is a joke. We wear polos like it’s a fashion show.", @OSA2012

"They tried to make us wear slacks. I wore jeans and got a detention.", @OSA2014"

A school in Oakland where they claim to care about your talent, but they force you to wear polos and slacks. You get to pick between music, dance, art, and drama, but the dress code is the worst part.

"I wanted to wear a shirt that said 'I hate OSA' but got in trouble.", @OSA2013

"They make us wear slacks like it’s the 1980s.", @OSAStudent2015

"I tried to wear a tutu to class and got a warning.", @OSA2016"
