Most rating sites report "4% proficient" for Frick United Academy of Language Middle and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
0.5% of students exceeded standard while 3.0% met it. That exceeded rate is 16.8 points below the state average of 17.3%. That's 11.8 points below the Oakland Unified district average of 12.4%. The 3 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 4.3% exceeded — 3.8 points higher. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" can reveal how much a school's curriculum challenges students beyond proficiency.
Students here improve by 0.9 percentage points from Grade 6 to grade 8 growth, suggesting the school is adding value beyond what students arrive with.
California's Dashboard shows ELA performance increased and Math increased year-over-year. 3.3% of English learners reached Level 4 (Well Developed) on ELPAC.
