What North Oakland Community Charter School does
Mission
A public school dedicated to helping children to become thoughtful, informed, and inquisitive citizens. Noccs is a vibrant, diverse learning community driven by respect for each child's unique intelligence and history. Our school's dynamic and challenging educational approach deepens the intellectual and social capacities of each child that we serve.
As stated on its FY2023 Form 990.
Program
Operation of a public charter school: North Oakland Community Charter School (noccs) opened its doors in 2000 and has proudly served the oakland community for 20 years and has evolved as an organization over this time. The diversity of student body that noccs serves in its current iteration is a true asset in this work and underscores the core principles upon which the school was founded. Our graduate profile sets forth our school's vision for what each student, throughout their career and upon their graduation from noccs, shall know and be able to concretely evidence through various forms of assessment and student work in four domains: 1) critical and creative thinking, 2) powerful communication, 3) community engagement, and 4) exemplary scholarship.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $1.2M to $2.0M (+67%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 82% · 2018 85% · 2019 85% · 2020 86% · 2021 90% · 2022 87% · 2023 88%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
96% of NORTH OAKLAND COMMUNITY CHARTER SCHOOL’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (48% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base held at 5 funders, grant income rose $193k → $216k.
6 of 13 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 8% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of NORTH OAKLAND COMMUNITY CHARTER SCHOOL’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
NORTH OAKLAND COMMUNITY CHARTER SCHOOL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 82% of grant income and the top three 90%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
96% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund NORTH OAKLAND COMMUNITY CHARTER SCHOOL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 83% · 2018 92% · 2019 76% · 2020 96% · 2021 74% · 2022 80% · 2023 74% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
38% of NORTH OAKLAND COMMUNITY CHARTER SCHOOL's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 69% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
100% of NORTH OAKLAND COMMUNITY CHARTER SCHOOL's grant income comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $139k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
