What should I do next?

Worth a school visit

With no score to read, a visit does the heavy lifting: ask about class sizes, teacher tenure, and where last year's students went next.

  • Ask about typical class sizes and the student-teacher ratio.
  • Ask how long teachers have stayed at the school.
  • Ask where recent graduates or transfers went next.
  • Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom, and watch how a lesson actually runs.

Use the published evidence to prepare questions, then verify fit and access with the school.

Epic Charter: reading the evidence

Epic Charter is a middle school in Oakland. We publish no Scope Score, band or rank for it this year — the composite they are all built from isn't on file. Here's what we can show.

Subject proficiency describes tested students, while graduation describes a graduating cohort. These figures are not successive stages followed by the same students.
