Summary

Oak Park Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 545 students in the San Diego Unified district, currently rated 3 stars and ranking in the top 60% of schools statewide.

When compared to nearby schools, Oak Park stands out for its academic strengths, particularly in mathematics where its proficiency rate is the highest among local peers, including Webster Elementary and Carver Elementary. The school has also shown remarkable success in dramatically reducing chronic student absenteeism over the past few years, a positive trend that outpaces many surrounding schools. Furthermore, Oak Park achieves these solid results with lower per-student spending than several comparable schools, indicating efficient use of resources.

While the school excels in many areas, there are opportunities for growth, particularly in science proficiency, which is an area of focus across the region. Parents should also note that the school's overall state ranking has seen a recent decline. However, Oak Park's strong performance in core subjects and its effective support systems make it a notable option for families in the community.
