Summary

Oak Grove Elementary School is a public elementary school in Medford, Oregon, serving 415 students in grades K-5 and part of the Medford School District 549C.

Despite being part of a district ranked 67 out of 140 in Oregon, Oak Grove Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, maintaining a 1-star or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 15.4% of 3rd graders at Oak Grove were proficient in ELA, compared to 36.2% in the district and 40.3% statewide. Additionally, the school has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 34.0% to 39.1% over the past few years, which is much higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby Jacksonville Elementary and Griffin Creek Elementary schools significantly outperform Oak Grove Elementary in academic proficiency, with rates often 30-40 percentage points higher. These higher-performing schools also have lower chronic absenteeism rates and serve a lower percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. While Oak Grove Elementary spends approximately $18,927 per student, which is higher than the state average, the school's challenges appear to be more systemic, requiring a comprehensive approach to address the unique needs of its student population.
