Rating 3.54 out of 5 149 reviews
Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) provided a diverse learning environment with a strong sense of community. I appreciated the focus on inclusivity, especially in schools that offered support for students from various cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. The teachers were passionate about their subjects and many went out of their way to offer extra help, whether it was through tutoring or providing resources outside of the classroom. I also enjoyed the extracurricular programs, which helped me discover new interests and connect with like-minded peers. I would love to see more equitable resource distribution across all schools in the district. It’s important for every student, regardless of their school’s location or demographic, to have access to up-to-date materials, qualified staff, and extracurricular opportunities. Additionally, I think there should be more emphasis on mental health support and student well-being, especially in a district as diverse and urban as Oakland
Your experience depends on different variables. Mostly depends on the teacher but they are underpaid and overworked.
My experience at Oakland Tech has been good for the most part. The best parts of my experience at Oakland Tech are the school spirit and the community within the school. The worst parts of my experience are some of the teachers and the food. I would like to see a change in the school staff.
