About Oxford Preparatory Academy Charter Schools

Founded in Chino by respected administrator Sue Roche, Oxford Preparatory Academy is a tuition-free, public charter school open to all students in the state of California, with priority enrollment given to students within CVUSD. Oxford Preparatory Academy opened a second campus in Mission Viejo in September, 2011, after unanimous approval of its charter petition by the Capistrano Unifed School District Board of Trustees. The projected 2012 API for the one-year old Oxford Prep South Orange County campus is 997. 

Oxford's college-inspired academic program is based on Dr. Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, which assumes that all children are gifted and learn in at least eight ways. Gardner's eight intelligences include: linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. By utilizing this theory in its instructional approach, Oxford Preparatory Academy teachers and staff are able to increase academic retention and produce optimal educational success for its students.
