Summary

Madison Park Academy Elementary is a K–5 school in Oakland Unified, in Oakland, California, with 241 students. Its test scores are stronger than those of its closest Oakland Unified elementary peers in English and math, but the central concern is that proficiency remains well below district and state levels.

Among four nearby Oakland Unified schools, Madison led in all-grades English language arts (ELA) and math and ranked second in science; it also scored above the group’s average in all three subjects. Yet its 2025–2026 proficiency was only 20% in ELA, 19% in math and 8% in science. Those results were below Oakland Unified and California: ELA was 14 points below the district and 29 below the state, math 9 and 20 points below, and science 19 and 28 points below. Science is a particular weakness against the broader nearby group, where Madison ranked fifth of seven schools.

Results have not kept pace with the state: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, the state-to-school proficiency gap widened by 3 points in ELA, 4 in math and 6 in science. The latest year also brought a sharp science decline of 9 points. SchoolDigger ranked Madison in the 7th percentile with 0 stars in 2025–2026, down from the 31st percentile two years earlier; only Halkin Elementary and Washington Elementary ranked higher among nearby schools. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 20.9, below the 22.3 average for nearby district peers, and 59% of students were directly certified for free meals. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for English Language Learner Students was notably higher than the school’s overall ranking: 71st percentile versus 31st in 2023–2024. Its ranking for Hispanic Students fell from the 52nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 9th in 2025–2026.
