Summary:
The 94618 zip code area of Oakland, California is home to 4 schools - 3 elementary schools and 1 middle school. The data reveals a stark contrast in performance between the top-ranked elementary schools, Chabot Elementary and Hillcrest, and the district and state averages.
Chabot Elementary and Hillcrest consistently rank among the top schools in California, maintaining 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger. These schools significantly outperform the Oakland Unified district and California state averages on standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas. In contrast, Claremont Middle also performs better than the district and state, but not to the same degree as the top-performing elementary schools.
The data also reveals concerning trends, such as high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 39.2% at Hillcrest to 84.6% at Kaiser Early Childhood Center. Additionally, the schools have varying percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting differing socioeconomic backgrounds of the student populations. The smaller student-teacher ratios at the smaller schools, like Kaiser Early Childhood Center, may contribute to their ability to provide more individualized attention and support to students.
