Summary:
The Oakland Unity Middle District consists of a single public charter middle school, Oakland Unity Middle, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 59 students. The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from the top third to the bottom quarter of California middle schools in recent years, suggesting inconsistent academic performance.
Oakland Unity Middle has some strengths, such as outperforming the state average in 8th-grade English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics. However, the school underperforms the state average in 6th and 7th-grade ELA/Literacy and Mathematics, as well as in 8th-grade Science. Additionally, the school has a notably high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.1%, which could be a contributing factor to its variable academic outcomes. With 44.07% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Oakland Unity Middle serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, which is an important context to consider when evaluating the school's performance.
Overall, the data suggests that Oakland Unity Middle has room for improvement, particularly in addressing chronic absenteeism and strengthening academic outcomes in certain grade levels and subject areas. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions may be necessary to help the school achieve more consistent and stronger performance.
