Description

In Best.School.Ever. Part 1 of a 2 part series, Claire and Sheilah visit the Oasis Skateboard Factory, a Toronto District School Board school where students graduate with a whole lot more than a highschool diploma. Our podcasters talk with students CJ, Will, Stellan, Maggie, Tyler, Otis and Kioni about what it means to be in charge of your learning and your own skateboard brand. Teacher Lauren Hortie gives us the goods on the philosophy behind learning by doing, working in community, and the meaning of education. Check out the school's instagram, and the brands run by OSF students below.@oasisskateboardfactory@ronnskateboards@babyteethskateco@fireboardsk8@cootiesclubsk8co@persephoneseye@brainrotsk8.co

Real talk about growing up, being human, and navigating student life as we explore the feels, fails, and stories that help us understand ourselves and each other. We are passionate about the power of story to create change, shift perspectives and deepen understanding. This student-led production is a space to create dynamic and engaging audio work and share personal narratives that connect us to intimate conversations about social justice, identity and community.
