GENERAL OVERVIEW

OCPA will offer the highly regarded Expeditionary Learning curriculum in sixth through eighth grades and a blended high school, college, and career experience in high school. It is also a unique, two-generation public school, authorized by the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents, that provides a tuition-free education to children, and works directly with families to ensure children are inspired, learning, growing, and achieving to their full potential. OCPA begins its first year of operation in September of 2022 with sixth grade, ninth grade, and tenth grade while One City Elementary School (Grades 4K-5) will enter its fifth year with the addition of fifth grade. One City Schools is the only public school in Wisconsin that offers both a longer school day (8:15 am to 4:45 pm for the middle school) and longer school year (219 days vs 180 days in traditional public schools).
In Fall of 2021, we moved into our permanent home, a $12 million facility located at 1707 W. Broadway in Monona, Wisconsin, a small city located on the South Side of our capital city. This 13.5 acre campus includes a 157,000 school facility that will serve 888 K-12 scholars by 2024. The campus is situated just 5 blocks from Lake Monona, just north of Lake Waubesa, and 10 minutes from downtown Madison.
ABOUT THE SCHOOL
One City Preparatory Academy is seeking its founding teachers and coaches for the 2022-23 school year. Beginning with grades 6, 9, and 10, the school will grow in 2023-24 to grades 6-7 and 9-11, then in 2024-25 to 6-12. The middle school program at One City Preparatory Academy is an interdisciplinary, student-centered, project-based learning experience in a school organized around the principles of community and equity. In high school, the program is focused on preparation for college or career through a blended high school, college, and career program. Emphasis for both middle and high school is placed not just on academic skill development, but also on individual and community character skills such as empathy, flexibility, curiosity, and grit. Our scholars are taught how to be lifelong learners and thinkers, equipped to approach unpredictable challenges ahead.
The Pleasant T. Rowland Leadership Campus, our new home at 1707 W Broadway, borders Madison and Monona and includes large outdoor space that will be developed into usable exploration space. Inside the building we are developing innovative spaces including everything from a beauty/barber salon, to a student-run DJ booth, coffee shop, school store, and Summit Credit Union branch, to teacher training suites where new teachers can learn from seasoned professionals through one-way glass.
In our longer school day and longer school year model, we have the ability to be flexible and innovative with schedule and program. We are seeking educators eager to build a school and a program designed to meet the needs of historically underrepresented communities.
