More About Oakland

Oakland is also the home of the headquarters of the University of California system.

There are several private high schools. Notables include the secular The College Preparatory School and Head-Royce School, both with tuitions around /

Oakland`s three largest public high schools are Oakland High School, Oakland Technical High School, and Skyline High School. There are also numerous small high schools inside Castlemont Community of Small Schools, Fremont Federation of High Schools, and McClymonds Educational Complex, all of which were once single, bigger public high schools (Castlemont High School, Fremont High School, and McClymonds High School, respectively).

Several factors have been blamed for poor performance, including an inefficient top-heavy administrative structure and a student body that is often poor or from a background of limited English proficiency.

As one of the three major ports on The US West Coast, the Port of Oakland is the largest seaport on San Francisco Bay and the fourth busiest container port in the US. It was one of the earliest seaports to switch to containerization and to intermodal container transfer, thereby displacing San Francisco which never modernized its old waterfront. One of the earlier limitations to growth was the inability to transfer containers to rail lines, all cranes historically operating between ocean vessels and trucks. In the 1980s the Port of Oakland began the evaluation of development of an intermodal container transfer capability, i.e. facilities that now allow trans-loading of containers from vessels to either trucks or rail modes.

Freight service, which consists primarily of moving shipping containers to and from the Port of Oakland, is provided today by the Union Pacific (which absorbed the Western Pacific in 1983 and the Southern Pacific in the 1990s), and to a lesser extent by the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (which now shares the tracks of the Union Pacific between Richmond and Oakland).
