Summary

Oak Grove Elementary is a public elementary school in Bloomington, Minnesota, serving 437 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Bloomington Public School District, which has a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger.

Oak Grove Elementary consistently outperforms the Bloomington district and the state of Minnesota in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 52.14% of Oak Grove students were proficient or better in MCA-III Math, compared to 38.3% for the district and 45.21% for the state. The school's performance is particularly strong in 4th and 5th grade math and reading, where it outpaces the district and state by a wider margin. Oak Grove also stands out for its performance with African American students, ranking in the top 25% of Minnesota elementary schools in recent years.

However, the school struggles with its English Language Learner and Low Socioeconomic Status student populations, ranking in the bottom 25% and 30% of Minnesota elementary schools, respectively. Nearby Hillcrest Elementary has shown stronger performance in recent years, ranking in the top 50% of Minnesota elementary schools, while the local Compass Academy charter school has lower overall academic performance but higher 4th-grade math proficiency. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio may contribute to its stronger academic performance compared to other schools in the district.
