Free. Public. Built for Big Futures.

Every student deserves an education that sees their potential — and helps them reach it. From TK to high school, EFC is where academic growth and belonging go hand in hand.

Big Futures Start Here

At Education for Change, every student is seen, challenged, and supported — from their very first day of school to graduation day. Across our six Oakland campuses, families find more than a free, public education. They find a place where academic growth is personal, community is real, and big dreams are not just welcomed — they’re prepared for.

Start Strong: TK & Kindergarten at EFC

Where confidence begins — from day one.

Our youngest learners are welcomed into warm, caring classrooms where curiosity is sparked and strong foundations are built. At EFC, your child is seen, supported, and set on a path to thrive — academically and personally.
