Summary

East Oakland Pride Elementary is a public elementary school serving 345 students in grades K-5 in the Oakland Unified School District. Located in a low-income area of East Oakland, the school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing schools in California, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

East Oakland Pride Elementary struggles academically, with only 5.73% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and just 3.14% proficient in math, far below the district and state averages. The school also has very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.4% to 52.9% over the past few years. Despite spending significantly more per student ($24,091 in 2023-2024) compared to the district and state, the school's academic outcomes remain extremely low, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be enough to address the complex challenges facing the school and its students.

The challenges at East Oakland Pride Elementary are not unique, as the other schools in the immediate vicinity, such as Highland Community, EnCompass Academy Elementary, and Lockwood STEAM Academy Elementary, also perform poorly academically and have high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism. This suggests that the educational challenges in this low-income area of Oakland require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to improve instruction, attendance, and support services for the diverse student population.
