Summary:

This analysis examines five elementary schools serving grades K-5 (with one K-8 school) in Oakland's 94606 zip code, all of which are part of either the Oakland Unified or Community School for Creative Education District.

Cleveland Elementary stands out as the top performer, significantly exceeding district and state averages in all subjects while also having the lowest rate of chronic student absenteeism. It achieves this despite having the lowest per-student spending in the group. In contrast, Garfield Elementary and the Community School for Creative Education face the greatest challenges, with academic proficiency rates well below averages and, at Community School, a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 44.3%.

The remaining schools, Franklin Elementary and La Escuelita, show performance below state averages. A review of recent years shows declining rankings for Franklin and La Escuelita, while Cleveland's high performance has been consistent. The data reveals a strong neighborhood correlation between lower chronic absenteeism and higher academic performance, and it shows that higher per-student spending in this area does not automatically lead to better student outcomes.
