Oak View Elementary consistently ranks among the top 20% of Virginia elementary schools, with students performing significantly better than the Fairfax County and Virginia state averages on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests, particularly in mathematics and English reading.

Oak View is our second school in FCPS, and it is truly amazing. The teachers treat the students so well, and it is a caring, loving atmosphere that is focused on the whole child. I love the message of acceptance and strong academics at this school. I have found most of the families to be extremely friendly and approachable, and the administration is top notch. Close Quote

Oakview has been a great experience and I think you will find if you look at the stats on the Fairfax County website, this is actually a 5 star school. The staff is very caring and has created a great learning environment. The principal is the most hands on of any I have encountered. Close Quote
