On Thursday, May 15, 2025, during a regular Board meeting, the OPA Board of Directors unanimously voted to approve the Facility Use Agreement (FUA) from Saddleback Valley Unified School District (SVUSD) for OPA-Saddleback Valley Elementary and the OPA-Middle School.
This means OPA-Middle School will move to a stand-alone site at the beautiful San Joaquin Elementary School site in time for the start of the 25-26 school year. This site is located at 22182 Barbera, Laguna Hills. OPA-SV Elementary School will remain at its current location.
The new campus offers a dedicated and dynamic environment designed to support our middle school champions. Some distinguishing features of the campus include: athletic fields, a library, expansive outdoor spaces, and a distinguished Honour Hall. In addition, this facility offers enhanced classroom space, specialized office areas, and Career Technical Education (CTE) labs.
This Facility Use Agreement will enable OPA to provide an enhanced and safe educational facility to our Middle School Champions. OPA is proud of our deeply rooted culture and traditions, and looks forward to bringing them to life in our new home location. OPA remains committed to educating our uniquely gifted children by fostering an environment where each champion can thrive academically, emotionally, physically, and socially.
All members of the OPA community are invited to join an Executive Director Town Hall meeting to learn more about the new site location and transition timeline. OPA welcomes the opportunity for families to express any comments, questions, or concerns that this change may facilitate.
