Summary

EnCompass Academy Elementary is a K–5 school in Oakland, in Oakland Unified, with 283 students. In 2025–2026, 25% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 18% in math and 2% in science, all below district and California results. The clearest concern is science: EnCompass had the lowest science result among five nearby Oakland Unified K–5 schools with comparable results.

EnCompass stands out locally in ELA and math, though not in science. It had the highest ELA result among those five schools and ranked second in math; their average results were 14% in ELA, 13% in math and 8% in science. But EnCompass’s ELA result was 9 percentage points below the district and 24 below the state; math was 10 points below the district and 21 below the state. Science was 25 points below the district and 34 below the state. Within the school, ELA was stronger in third and fifth grades than in fourth: fourth-grade ELA was 15%, compared with 29% in third and 32% in fifth. EnCompass’s 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 20.5:1, lower than nearby Oakland Unified schools’ ratios of 22.2:1 to 24.6:1, but that did not translate into uniformly stronger test results.

ELA has improved, while science has recently dropped: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA rose 9 percentage points and math rose 6, while science fell 2; science also dropped from 11% in 2024–2025 to 2% the next year. Chronic absenteeism declined from 75% in 2022–2023 to 26% in 2025–2026, but remained 8 points above the state rate. SchoolDigger ranks EnCompass in the 9th percentile statewide, with 0 stars, up from the 3rd percentile in 2021–2022. Its 2024–2025 low-income measure was 60% of students directly certified for free meals; the school is also marked as likely serving free meals to all students through Community Eligibility. SchoolDigger’s 2023–2024 English Language Learner Students ranking was at the 25th percentile, compared with the school’s overall 7th percentile that year, suggesting stronger performance serving that group.
