Summary

Oakdale Heights Elementary is a 252-student K–5 school in Oroville, California, in the Oroville City Elementary District. Its most serious academic concern is third grade: in 2025–26, 6% of third graders were proficient in math and 9% in English language arts (ELA), the lowest results among nearby K–5 schools with comparable results.

Overall, Oakdale’s 2025–26 results were below the state in all three subjects, but its standing varied by subject and comparison. ELA was its weakest: 22% were proficient, compared with 27% in the district, 49% statewide, and an average of 32% at five nearby K–5 schools; Oakdale had the lowest ELA result among those schools. Math was 20%, just above the district’s 19% but below the state’s 38% and the nearby-school average of 25%; Oakdale ranked third-lowest among those peers. Science was a relative strength against the district and state—26%, versus 22% and 36%—though still below the nearby-school average of 28%. Fourth-grade math also stood out locally at 26%, above four of six nearby schools with comparable results. Chronic absenteeism is another concern: Oakdale’s 34% rate was higher than the state’s 18%, the district’s 31%, and the nearby-school average of 27%.

Oakdale’s results have improved over four years in ELA and science, but math has advanced only slightly. From 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA rose 9 percentage points and science rose 14, while math rose 2; science also fluctuated sharply, dropping before its latest increase. Oakdale’s overall SchoolDigger ranking is at the 16th percentile with one star. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 18, compared with a nearby-school average of 20.8, and 79% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Hispanic Students was notably stronger than the overall ranking: the group was at the 42nd percentile in 2025–26, up from the 4th percentile in 2022–23. For White Students, the ranking was at the 1st percentile in 2025–26, well below the school’s overall standing.
