In August 2006, the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) created a project for students from different OUSD high schools to research how their schools could become better. A group of nine students representing most of the big OUSD high schools were chosen to join this student research team.
The students, with the help of Youth in Focus, a non-profit organization that helps students learn how to do research and create an action plan to help improve their schools and communities, created a powerpoint presentation that shows the research, data, and recommendations from their work. The ultimate goal of the project is to create an action plan to help OUSD high schools inform their school-site planning from a student perspective.

There are some very important things that you need to keep in mind when you're on your computer at home or at school.
- Never to give out personal information such as your name, home address, school name, or telephone number in a chat room or on bulletin boards
- Never send a picture of yourself to someone you chat with on the computer without your parent's permission
- Never write to someone who has made you feel uncomfortable or scared
- Do not meet someone or have them visit you without the permission of your parents
- Tell your parents right away if you read anything on the Internet that makes you feel uncomfortable
- Remember that people online may not be who they say they are. Someone who says that "she" is a "12-year-old girl" could really be an older man
