Summary

ARISE High is a public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in East Oakland, with approximately 400 students and a favorable student-teacher ratio of about 16 to 1.

The school has shown impressive, steady improvement in recent years and has clear strengths in English Language Arts, where student proficiency exceeds the state average, and in graduating students, with a rate near 90%. It is particularly effective in supporting its Hispanic students and students in Special Education. When compared to other local schools, ARISE High often performs well; for instance, its graduation rate is higher than nearby Alternatives in Action and Fremont High, and its chronic absenteeism is lower than several schools including Aspire Golden State College Preparatory Academy. The school is part of the ARISE High District, which outperforms the larger Oakland Unified district where many neighboring schools are located.

Areas for growth include mathematics and science proficiency, which are below state averages, and a chronic absenteeism rate that, while improving, is still above the state average. The school also spends more per student than many peers, which raises questions about how to best boost achievement in its weaker subjects. Overall, ARISE High is a school on an upward trajectory with notable successes, especially considering the economic challenges many of its students face, but it has specific academic and attendance challenges to address.
