Coliseum College Prep Academy

Summary:

Coliseum College Prep Academy is a public high school serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 700 students in Oakland, California, which is part of the Oakland Unified School District. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of California high schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other schools in the state.

Coliseum College Prep Academy struggles to effectively serve certain student subgroups, ranking particularly low for Asian, African American, and English Language Learner students. The school's graduation rates have fluctuated widely, ranging from a high of 98.4% to a low of 83.6% in recent years, and it has had significant issues with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 58.8%. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on state assessments are well below state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 56.25% of 11th-grade students proficient in English Language Arts and just 9.38% proficient in mathematics.

Compared to nearby schools in the Oakland Unified School District, such as Castlemont High, LIFE Academy, and Fremont High, Coliseum College Prep Academy's performance is generally lower. Some local charter schools, like Oakland Unity High and Lighthouse Community Charter High, also outperform Coliseum College Prep Academy on key metrics, suggesting the charter school model may be more effective in serving the needs of students in this community.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
