Summary:
The 94619 zip code area of Oakland, California is home to 7 schools, including 6 elementary schools and 1 high school. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and struggling schools in this area, highlighting the need for continued efforts to address educational inequities.
Among the standout schools are Redwood Heights Elementary, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state with very high proficiency rates, and Melrose Leadership Academy, a K-8 school that also performs above average. The lone high school, Skyline High, has a graduation rate above the Oakland Unified district average.
However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance, with some schools like Laurel Elementary and Allendale Elementary struggling compared to the top performers. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern at several schools, and the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicate substantial socioeconomic challenges faced by families in the area. While Urban Montessori Charter stands out as a unique educational approach, addressing these inequities remains an important priority for the Urban Montessori Charter District and Oakland Unified district.
