Summary

Brookside Elementary is a K–5 school in Oak Park, California, with 556 students. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates were well above California’s in English language arts (ELA), mathematics, and science. The most important takeaway is that strong schoolwide results mask a clear grade-level contrast: fifth grade stands out, while third grade is a relative weak spot.

Compared with eight nearby K–5 schools with published results, Brookside ranked second in all-grades ELA and third in math and science; its scores were 6, 5, and 10 percentage points above nearby-school averages, respectively. Its 80% ELA and 76% math proficiency rates were also 30 and 37 points above state rates. Math was 4 points above Oak Park Unified, while ELA was about level with the district. Science was 36 points above the state and 10 points above nearby schools, but 3 points below the district—the school’s weakest subject in that comparison. By grade, fifth-grade ELA reached 90%, the highest among the nine nearby schools compared, while third-grade ELA was 66%, below the district’s 70%; third-grade math was 69%, below the district’s 74%.

Over time, ELA proficiency rose 3 percentage points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, while math and science each fell about 3 points. The school’s advantage over the state narrowed by 7 points in math and 9 in science; science also shifted from 2 points above the district to 3 points below. SchoolDigger ranks Brookside 358th of 5,804 statewide, at the 94th percentile with 5 stars. Its student–teacher ratio is 25.2, above the nearby-school average of about 23.5. Its reported measure was 8% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, the lowest among nearby schools with comparable data. SchoolDigger’s ranking for White Students was notably lower than the overall ranking: the school was at the 79th percentile for that group versus 94th overall. For Multi-racial Students, its ranking rose from the 70th percentile in 2021–2022 to the 98th in 2023–2024.
