Summary:
Learning Without Limits District in Oakland, California, consists of a single elementary school, Learning Without Limits, serving grades K-5 with 335 students.
The school faces significant academic challenges, consistently performing well below state averages across all subjects. In the latest assessments, only about 31% of students were proficient in English and 20% in math, compared to state averages of 49% and 37%, respectively. This pattern of underperformance is reflected in its statewide ranking, which places it in the bottom 20-25% of all California schools and has earned it a 1-star rating for three consecutive years. The Learning Without Limits District itself is ranked in the 12th percentile statewide, directly mirroring the school's results.
Key factors likely influencing these outcomes include a chronic absenteeism rate of 32%, which is much higher than the state average of 19%, and a student population where two-thirds qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. While per-student spending is moderate at over $12,000, the data suggests that comprehensive strategies addressing attendance and targeted academic support, particularly in mathematics where the gap is largest, are critical areas for improvement.
