Summary:
Oak Valley Union Elementary has one school, Oak Valley Elementary, serving kindergarten through eighth grade with 562 students. In 2025–2026, the school’s all-grades proficiency was 49% in English language arts (ELA), 36% in math and 38% in science; California’s results were 49%, 38% and 36%, respectively. The clearest takeaway is that the school was slightly below the state in ELA and math, but above it in science.
Because this is the only school in the area list, it is both the local leader and the trailing school; that does not distinguish it from local peers. Its strongest grade-level results relative to California were fourth-grade ELA, at 62% compared with 46% statewide, and fourth-grade math, at 52% compared with 42%. Eighth-grade science was also higher, at 45% versus 35%. The largest shortfall was seventh-grade math: 17% of students met the proficiency benchmark, compared with 38% statewide—a 20-point gap.
Compared with 2024–2025, Oak Valley Elementary’s ELA proficiency fell from 53% to 49%, and math fell from 37% to 36%; science was 38% in both years when rounded. Its position relative to the state weakened in all three subjects: the school’s advantage narrowed by 5 points in ELA, 3 in math and 4 in science, though science remained above the state. SchoolDigger gives it 3 stars and a 58th-percentile statewide rank (2,465 of 5,804). Other context includes a student-teacher ratio of 17.8 in 2024–2025 and 65% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. The reported chronic-absenteeism value was 2, compared with 18 statewide in 2025–2026.
