Life Middle School Oak Cliff News & Notes

Twenty-five years ago, Life School was one of the first charter schools to begin operating in Texas. Shortly thereafter, in 1999, Randall Mays's parents determined that transferring the then 5th grader to Life School was the best option for their son.

Life School, a leading K-12 school district committed to providing exceptional education and fostering student success, announced a groundbreaking milestone: a record-breaking enrollment of nearly 5,800 students. This unprecedented achievement is attributed to the implementation of the innovative 4-day school week, which has garnered significant praise from students, parents, and educators alike; along with a continued focus on character development.

 Life Middle School Oak Cliff (LMSOC) is delighted to announce that it has received a significant donation from the prestigious organization, Dallas Winds. This donation includes a variety of instruments, including flutes, alto and tenor saxophones, trumpets and trombones.

Life School, a Dallas area charter school, recently made a bold and innovative change to its structure by moving to a 4-day school week. The 4-day school week is designed to boost student well-being; maintain strong student attendance; provide quality instruction for students; retain and attract quality teachers and staff; and give time back to students and staff to improve overall performance and quality of life. Students attend Monday-Thursday, with most Fridays off.
