Qrow alludes to Munin, not Scarecrow, so that opens the possibility for Shade's headmaster to be Scarecrow.

And Oscar is Dorothy. Both lived on a farm with their aunt, wanted something more from life ("I always knew that I wanted to be more than a farmhand, but this? - Oscar"), and ended up unexpectedly thrown into an adventure. In a sequel, Dorothy first talks to Ozma, the rightful ruler of Oz, through a mirror. Ozpin first speaks to Oscar while he's looking in a mirror.
