School Overview

Lodestar serves families in the Sobrante Park neighborhood of deep East Oakland, offering a K-12 charter pathway that keeps kids in one community from kindergarten through graduation — something that genuinely matters in a part of the city where school stability can be hard to come by. Academics are still developing, with math showing the most traction relative to the school's overall profile, and families here tend to be drawn more to the school's wraparound, community-rooted approach than to test score rankings. For families committed to staying in East Oakland and wanting a school that knows their kids by name across many years, Lodestar's long-arc model has real appeal.
