About Oasis Charter Schools

Oasis Charter Schools is a municipal charter school system that is sponsored by the School District of Lee County, fiscally managed by the City of Cape Coral, and supported by the Cape Coral Charter School Authority Governing Board. The District is our charter sponsor and together we share strictly enforced Florida Department of Education curriculum standards, and uphold State of Florida educator professional development and training. The City of Cape Coral is our municipal partner. Oasis and City departments combine key financial services, ITS teams, and human resources personnel to create an efficient and impactful community ecosystem.

We believe that everyone can succeed in a nurturing and secure learning environment that is supported by diverse and meaningful community partnerships.

Our schools offer a beautiful and safe environment that inspires learning, but we also know that we need the support of our entire community. Our students need loving parents who nourish them and send them to school ready to learn, who value education and help them with their schoolwork. In the spirit of cooperation, our schools welcome parents and families to actively become involved in school programs and activities, and require families to volunteer and partner to assist our mission.

Our teachers are caring, qualified, and committed to excellence in classroom instruction. They establish and honor positive relationships with their students. Our administrators lead with student achievement and student welfare at the heart of each decision they make. Our support staff all work hand-in-hand to meet the needs of each student, and ensure success for all.

While academic success and superior test scores are critical to our schools, our vision embraces much more: our schools are places where children are happy and excited to learn. Furthermore, our curriculum and teachers challenge students to not only think critically, but to use common sense in their lives; our students learn values, and value service to others; our students feel free to imagine, to create, and to shape their interests and talents for future careers.
