332^nd

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 5,804 California Elementary Schools

Better than 94% of California elementary schools

Summary

Silver Oak Elementary serves 469 students in kindergarten through sixth grade in San Jose’s Evergreen area, within the Evergreen Elementary district. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates were 79% in English language arts (ELA), 81% in math, and 62% in science, all above district and state results. The clearest overall finding is that Silver Oak performs strongly across all three subjects, with its biggest advantage in math.

Silver Oak is among the local leaders in ELA and math, while science is a relative weak spot. Its results were higher than the averages for 10 nearby schools by 19 points in ELA, 24 in math, and 15 in science. It ranked first locally in ELA, narrowly ahead of James Franklin Smith Elementary (78.7% versus 78.4%), and second in math behind Evergreen Elementary (80.7% versus 81.1%). It ranked third in science. Compared with district results, Silver Oak was ahead by 15 points in ELA, 21 in math, and 10 in science; its leads over the state were 29, 42, and 26 points. Fourth grade was especially strong, with 87% proficiency in ELA and 88% in math—the best nearby results for that grade. Fifth grade was a relative soft spot at 70% in ELA and 68% in math, though both remained above district and state results.

Results have stayed high but have not risen steadily: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 4 points and math fell 3, while science rose 3. Meanwhile, Silver Oak’s leads over state results narrowed in all three subjects. SchoolDigger ranks it 332nd of 5,804 California schools, at the 94th percentile with 5 stars; only two nearby schools have higher percentiles. Its student-teacher ratio was 24.6:1 in 2024–2025, above the nearby-school average of 23.9:1. That year, 9% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the lowest reported share among nearby schools; California is identified in the data as a statewide free-meals state. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings also show lower relative standing for Asian Students: the 2025–2026 percentile was 75, compared with 94 overall. For White Students, the 2024–2025 subgroup percentile was 72, compared with 97 overall.
