Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA), colloquially called "OH-sha", which is retained from a mispronunciation of the previous acronym for the previous name of the school (respectively "Orange County High School of the Arts" and "OCHSA"), is a 7th–12th grade public charter school located in downtown Santa Ana, Orange County, California. The school caters to middle and high school students with talents in the performing, visual, literary arts, and culinary arts. The educational program prepares students for higher education institutions or employment in the professional arts industry. Both the academic and arts program have prompted recognition in the US News' "Best High Schools" program.
