Summary

Creekside Oaks Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 557 students in the Western Placer Unified School District in Lincoln, CA, currently holding a middle-of-the-road state ranking.

The school serves a community with significant economic needs, with over half of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and its academic proficiency in English, math, and science is notably lower than top-performing neighbors like Twelve Bridges Elementary and Sunset Ranch Elementary. Performance has been volatile year-to-year, with particular challenges in upper-grade math and science, though the school shows a relative strength in Spanish language assessments. It's important to note that Creekside Oaks spends more per student than many comparable schools in the district.

A clear success story is the dramatic improvement in student attendance, cutting chronic absenteeism by nearly two-thirds in recent years. However, when compared to schools in neighboring districts like Roseville City Elementary and Rocklin Unified, which consistently rank much higher, Creekside Oaks faces an ongoing challenge to raise academic outcomes for all students despite its higher funding levels.
