Key findings from 354 Oakland students who completed the Energy Convertors survey

There is a significant disconnect in students’ comprehension of grades and proficiency.

Three out of four students surveyed believe they are reading on grade level and three in five believe they are reaching the grade-level standard in math.

However, just 2 in 10 Black and Latino students are reading or doing math at grade level.

Teachers are not informing students of grade-level standards.

Three out of four Oakland students surveyed said a teacher has never discussed whether they are attaining grade-level standards in reading or math.

Many students don’t trust their teachers to manage their classrooms and don’t trust administrators to fix the issue.

One out of three students do not trust their teacher to manage misbehavior in the classroom, and one-third do not trust an administrator to resolve a conflict at school.
