SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 5,804 California Elementary Schools

Better than 10% of California elementary schools

Summary

Oakley (Calvin C.) Elementary serves 849 students in grades K–6 in Santa Maria, in the Santa Maria-Bonita district. In 2025–26, 22% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 20% in math, and 9% in science. The central takeaway is that results remain well below state proficiency in all three subjects, even though math is a relative strength compared with nearby schools.

Compared with the 10 nearby schools, Oakley ranked sixth in ELA, fifth in math, and tenth in science. Its math proficiency of 20% was about 1 point above the nearby-school average of 19%, while ELA at 22% was 2 points below the 24% average and science at 9% was 5 points below the 14% average. Math was also 3 points above the district’s 17%; ELA was 3 points below the district’s 25%, and science was 5 points below its 15%. Against the state, Oakley was 28 points lower in ELA, 18 points lower in math, and 27 points lower in science. Grade-level results vary: fourth grade was a relative bright spot, with 31% in ELA and 29% in math, while fifth-grade ELA was 15%, the lowest among the nearby schools.

ELA and math have improved since 2022–23, rising 6 and 10 points, respectively, while science fell 1 point overall after fluctuating. Oakley’s SchoolDigger standing is low statewide: it is at the 10th percentile with 1 star, though six of the 10 nearby schools rank lower. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 21:1, compared with a nearby-school average of about 22:1; 96% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings show a notable contrast: its statewide percentile for Homeless Students was 49 in 2025–26, versus 10 overall, while its Special Education Students percentile shifted from 46 in 2022–23 to 4 in 2025–26. These are SchoolDigger measures of how well the school serves each group.
