Each Monday at Ile Omode, our school community gathers for Morning Circle and reflects on our Quote of the Week—words that invite our students to think deeply, make connections, and carry the lesson into their week.

Now we’re inviting our extended community into the conversation. 🌍

What does this week’s quote mean to you?

Share your reflection in the comments. We’d love for our students to see the wisdom and perspectives of the village beyond our school walls.

We’re excited to officially welcome our inaugural cohort of Rise East Scholars to the Ile Omode family! ❤️🖤💚

Last week, we hosted our Rise East Family Orientation alongside EOYDC and The Brotherhood of Elders Network, creating space for families to learn more about Ile Omode, the Rise East initiative, and the community of support surrounding our scholars.

We’re grateful to be part of an initiative investing in East Oakland’s children and families—and even more excited for the journey ahead with our Rise East Scholars!

41 years of educating, affirming, and empowering our children.

Welcome to our 41st school year! ❤️🖤💚
