Best Public Schools in Oak View, CA


Summary:

The city of Oak View, California has a single public elementary school, Sunset Elementary, which serves grades K-8 and is part of the Ventura Unified School District. While Sunset Elementary has some positive metrics, such as strong 5th-grade English Language Arts proficiency, the school faces several challenges, including declining academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and serving a population with significant economic disadvantages.

Sunset Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in the lower grade levels. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 31.2% is also significantly higher than the district and state averages, which could be a contributing factor to the school's overall academic performance. Additionally, a high percentage of Sunset Elementary's students (63.86%) receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Compared to other schools in the region, Sunset Elementary does not appear to be a standout performer. The school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three school years, and its academic performance is uneven, with some grade levels performing better than others. Addressing the school's challenges, such as improving attendance and supporting students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, may be crucial for Sunset Elementary to improve and better serve its students.
