Summary

Greenleaf is a 613-student K–8 school in Oakland, where 96% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. The most important concern is that proficiency is below both Oakland Unified and California in all three reported subjects: in 2025–2026, Greenleaf’s rates were 16% in English language arts (ELA), 14% in math, and 15% in science.

Science is Greenleaf’s strongest subject relative to local and state benchmarks, while ELA is its weakest: its gaps to the district and state were 12 and 21 percentage points in science, compared with 19 and 34 points in ELA. A notable nearby bright spot is 5th-grade science: Greenleaf’s 13% was higher than results at nearby K–5 schools, which ranged from 2% to 12%; ACORN Woodland was next highest at 12%. In contrast, 3rd- and 4th-grade ELA were just 7% and 8%. Greenleaf’s 7th-grade ELA was stronger at 30%, but still below the district’s 34% and the state’s 51% for that grade.

Longer-term trends are concerning: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 3 points and math fell 2, while science rose by 1; the state gap widened by 6 points in ELA, 6 in math, and 5 in science. Attendance improved considerably, with chronic absenteeism dropping from 56% to 22%, though it remains above the state’s 18%. Greenleaf was ranked by SchoolDigger at the 2nd statewide percentile, with zero stars, in 2025–2026; its student–teacher ratio was 23.4 in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner Students ranking was once a relative strength, at the 54th percentile in 2021–2022 versus the school’s overall 7th percentile, but fell to the 16th percentile by 2023–2024. Nearby schools serve different grade spans, so same-grade comparisons are the most useful.
