Join us in celebrating the public schools across the Bay Area that are showing what’s possible.
Top Bay Area Public Schools for Underserved Students will be available online this week! Stay tuned to learn which local schools are showing that it is possible to narrow (and even close) the opportunity gaps we see across race/ethnicity and across income in the Bay Area. This annual report highlights 41 Bay Area public schools that had the top results for low-income Latino and African American students on the latest state tests.
The latest California state test scores show that while schools and districts have made gains overall, wide gaps in student achievement persist between low-income, African American and Latino students and their peers. Overall, proficiency rates are up 5% in English and 4% in math statewide. However, scores still show huge achievement gaps. In English, just 37% of Latinos and 31% of African American students have reached proficiency compared to 64% of white students and 76% of Asian students.
On Oct. 26, over 250 families came out for an action forum to ask public officials to support their push to bring a new KIPP charter public school to East Palo Alto.
En febrero, la junta escolar de Ravenswood aprobó una nueva escuela chárter KIPP en respuesta al pedido de cientos de padres para apoyar opciones escolares de alta calidad.
