We are so excited to share highlights from the 2022-2023 school year, including the results of our first-ever external impact evaluation, program accomplishments, student and teacher spotlights, and where we’re headed next!

We acknowledge that the land we are on today is the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Chochenyo Ohlone people. We are located in Huichin, also known as Oakland, on the unceded territories of Chochenyo and Ramaytush Ohlone peoples, who have continuously lived upon this land since time immemorial. We recognize the historic discrimination and violence inflicted upon Indigenous peoples in California and the Americas, including their forced removal from ancestral lands, and the deliberate and systematic destruction and genocide of their communities and culture.

Led by teaching artist and audio producer Elena Botkin-Levy, students used audio storytelling as a method of collecting and archiving stories about Swan’s Market, site of Chapter 510’s new writing center and much more. This film captures this powerful program from beginning to end. Thanks to video producer/documentarian Miles Lassi and to the Kenneth Rainin Foundation for underwriting this film.
