Summary

Oak Grove Elementary in Aliso Viejo serves 569 students in grades K–5 and is one of several nearby elementary schools families may compare. It earns 4 stars from SchoolDigger and ranks in the 87th percentile statewide, but its test results trail most nearby K–5 schools in all three subjects—its clearest overall concern for families comparing local options.

The school’s strongest subject is math: 69% of students met proficiency in 2025–26, 7 points above the district and 31 points above California, though 1 point below the nearby K–5 average. ELA proficiency was 68%, 2 points below the district and 3 below nearby peers; science was 53%, 6 points below the district and 11 below nearby peers. Oak Grove was above the state in every subject, but ranked seventh of eight schools in the local comparison for ELA, math, and science. Science is its weakest local comparison, while math stands out most against the district and state.

Scores have declined since 2022–23: ELA fell 7 points to 68%, math fell 7 to 69%, and science fell 3 to 53%. Because state scores improved over that period, Oak Grove’s leads narrowed, though it still outperforms the state in all three subjects. Its SchoolDigger ranking has also eased from the 93rd percentile in 2021–22 to the 87th percentile in 2025–26; among nearby schools, it ranks eighth of 10 with reported percentiles. Context measures are close to nearby averages: the 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible rate was 32%, and the student-teacher ratio was 23.7 compared with the local average of 23.8. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves Multi-racial Students fell to the 26th percentile in 2025–26 from the 70th in 2023–24, well below its overall 87th percentile. Its measure for Asian Students rose from the 51st to the 73rd percentile over those years, though it remained below the overall ranking.
