Latitude 37.8 High

Latitude 37.8 High sits in the Fruitvale-adjacent corridor of East Oakland, a part of the city known for its deep cultural roots and tight-knit Latino and immigrant communities. This small charter school lands around the middle of the pack statewide, with its strongest showing in science, which may appeal to families looking for a focused, non-traditional high school experience outside the larger Oakland Unified system. It's a good fit for students who thrive in an intimate school environment and families who want an alternative to the neighborhood's larger comprehensive high schools.
