Summary

Madison Park Academy 6-12 is a 676-student public school serving grades 6–12 in Oakland, in Oakland Unified. Its 2025–26 graduation rate was 84%, above the district’s 79% but below the state’s 88%; its dropout rate was 15%, higher than both. The most pressing concern is attendance: 58% of students were chronically absent, compared with 30% in the district and 18% statewide.

Test scores are low compared with the district and state, though Castlemont High had lower all-grade results in each subject. Madison’s 2025–26 proficiency was 13% in ELA, 7% in math and 9% in science, versus 34%, 28% and 27% in the district and 49%, 38% and 36% statewide. Science is the closest subject to the state rate, with a 27-point gap; ELA is furthest behind, at 36 points. Madison also trailed Coliseum College Prep Academy, whose all-grade results were 30% in ELA, 12% in math and 25% in science. Same-grade comparisons show particular concern in middle-grade ELA, especially grade 7.

Madison’s ELA proficiency fell 11 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, while math rose 1 point and science fell 1 point; state rates increased in all three subjects, widening Madison’s gaps. SchoolDigger ranks Madison at the 17th percentile statewide (1,768 of 2,137) and gives it 1 star; Oakland Unified is at the 26th percentile and also has 1 star. In 2024–25, 48% of Madison students were directly certified for free meals, and its student-teacher ratio was 17.5. SchoolDigger’s Special Education Students ranking fell from the 19th percentile in 2024–25 to the 4th percentile in 2025–26, compared with the school’s overall 17th percentile, indicating weaker relative standing for this group. Subgroup rankings are snapshots from different years.
