Summary

Oaks Middle serves 668 students in grades 7–8 in Ontario, California, within the Ontario-Montclair district. Its overall academic picture is mixed: English language arts (ELA) is above state and district results, science is near the state level and above the district, and math trails both. Results also differ sharply by grade. The most important concern is seventh-grade math: 28% of students were proficient, 9 points below the state, while eighth-grade math was 38%, slightly above it.

Compared with nearby schools serving the same grades, Oaks stands out most in science: its 35% proficiency was the highest among those schools, 3 points above the next result, at Woodcrest Junior High. That science result was about level with the state (1 point lower) and 8 points above the district. ELA was another strength: 52% proficient, 3 points above the state and 6 above the district, ranking third among the nearby same-grade schools. Math was also third among those peers, despite being a weakness against broader benchmarks: 33% proficient, 5 points below the state and 4 below the district.

Scores have risen overall since 2022–2023: ELA gained 5 points, math 4, and science 8, although math fell from 36% in 2024–2025 to 33% in 2025–2026. Chronic absenteeism also improved, dropping from 33% to 15%, but remained 6 points above the district. SchoolDigger gave Oaks a 60th-percentile ranking and three stars in 2025–2026, down from the 66th percentile the year before. In 2024–2025, its student–teacher ratio was 21.5, the highest among nearby schools, and 90% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness percentile for homeless students was notably high at 90, compared with Oaks’ overall 60. For special education students, the percentile fell from 87 in 2024–2025 to 58 in 2025–2026, while the overall ranking moved from 66 to 60.
