Summary
Wyandotte Academy is a K–5 elementary school in Oroville, California, with 249 students, in the Oroville City Elementary district. In 2025–2026, about 32% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 26% in math and 25% in science. The clearest academic concern is fourth grade: proficiency was 25% in ELA and 18% in math, below both the district and nearby schools’ results for that grade.
Compared with five nearby K–5 schools, Wyandotte was slightly above their average in ELA and math—by about 2 percentage points in each—but about 3 points below their average in science. It ranked third of six schools in ELA and math, and fourth of six in science. Its overall results were also above the district—by about 5 points in ELA, 7 in math and 3 in science—but below California’s results by about 17, 12 and 11 points, respectively. Fourth grade is a particular weakness locally, with Wyandotte’s ELA result higher than only two of seven nearby schools with data, and its math result higher than only two.
Results have improved since 2022–2023: proficiency rose about 23 points in ELA, 16 in math and 16 in science, narrowing the gaps with the state, though scores remain below state results. Chronic absenteeism also fell, from 50% in 2021–2022 to 36% in 2025–2026, but remained above the state’s 18%. SchoolDigger ranked Wyandotte 4,265th of 5,804 California schools in 2025–2026, at the 27th percentile with one star; its percentile rose from 2 in 2021–2022 but peaked at 36 in 2023–2024. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 16.6, the lowest reported among nearby schools, and 82% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch that year. One SchoolDigger subgroup result stands out: the school ranked at the 7th percentile for Asian students in 2025–2026, compared with the 27th percentile overall, indicating a lower statewide measure of how well it serves that group.
