Summary

Ottomon Way Elementary is a K–5 school in Orangevale, California, serving 258 students in San Juan Unified. Its 2025–26 results show a clear challenge in all-grades academic proficiency: the school was below the state and district in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. Most notably, it was below every nearby K–5 school with comparable ELA and math results, and below every one with a reported science result.

Compared with nearby K–5 schools, Ottomon Way Elementary had its closest peer-average result in ELA, but its largest gap in science. Its scores were 38% in ELA, 27% in math, and 29% in science, versus nearby-school averages of 64%, 62%, and 65%—gaps of 26, 35, and 37 percentage points. The school was closer to the district results, trailing by about 2 points in each subject; compared with the state, it was lower by 11 points in ELA, 11 in math, and 7 in science. Grade-level scores add important detail: fourth- and fifth-grade ELA were above state results, at 52% in each grade, while third-grade ELA was 14%, 30 points below the state. Fifth-grade math was another weak spot, at 17%, 20 points below the state.

Results have improved recently, but the longer-term picture is mixed: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA rose 4 points, math slipped 1 point, and science fell 7 points. Ottomon Way Elementary improved in all three subjects from the prior year, yet its science result remains well below its earlier level. SchoolDigger ranked it 3,591 of 5,804 statewide in 2025–26, at the 38th percentile with 2 stars. Chronic absenteeism was 24%, higher than the district’s 21% and the state’s 18%, although it had fallen 24 points since 2021–22. In 2024–25, 64% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and the student-teacher ratio was 25.8. These are useful context for families, but do not explain the school’s results.
