Summary

Envision Academy for Arts & Technology is a small public charter high school in Oakland, California, serving about 207 students in grades 6-12, which has shown significant improvement in its statewide ranking in recent years.

The school presents a complex picture for parents: it achieves a strong 91.3% graduation rate, outperforming the state average and many local schools, yet its standardized test scores are generally below average. A major challenge is chronic absenteeism, with over 60% of students missing significant school time, which is much higher than the state average and even most nearby schools like Oakland High (25.4%) or Oakland Military Institute College Preparatory Academy (10.5%). Performance varies dramatically by grade, with 11th graders performing relatively well in English while middle school scores are very low, and the school shows stark differences in effectiveness for different student subgroups.

Compared to other schools in the Oakland Unified area, Envision Academy spends more per student than some higher-performing charters. Its improvement trajectory is notable, especially when compared to a school like AIMS College Prep High, which saw a ranking decline. The school's strengths in graduation and support for some groups are promising, but its severe attendance issues and uneven academic results are significant areas of concern for its overall environment.
