Summary

Chabot Elementary is a high-performing K-5 public school serving 576 students in the Oakland Unified district, consistently ranking among the top 10% of all California elementary schools.

Academically, Chabot significantly outperforms other nearby Oakland schools, with proficiency rates in English and Math often two to five times higher than schools like Piedmont Avenue Elementary and Sankofa United Elementary. It also maintains an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 9.4%, far below the district average. Remarkably, the school achieves these strong results while spending less per student than several neighboring schools, and its effectiveness extends across all student groups, with Special Education students and other subgroups ranking in the 90th percentile or higher statewide.

Chabot's performance is so strong that it competes favorably with high-achieving schools in the neighboring Berkeley Unified district, such as John Muir Elementary. The school has demonstrated resilience, quickly recovering from a temporary spike in absenteeism to return to its hallmark consistency, maintaining a 4 or 5-star rating for over a decade and proving to be a standout success story within its district.
