Summary

Oakland Avenue Charter is a K-5 elementary school in Oakland, FL, serving 519 students within the Orange school district, and it has a strong track record of academic performance, consistently earning a 4-star rating from the state over the past decade.

This school stands out for its exceptional science performance, with 88% of 5th graders proficient in the 2025-2026 school year, far outpacing the district (67%) and state (60%) averages. This level of achievement is on par with top-performing nearby schools like Whispering Oak Elementary (89%) and Keenes Crossing Elementary (89%), and significantly exceeds schools like Ocoee Elementary (56%) and Dillard Street Elementary (70%). Another differentiator is the school's low chronic absenteeism rate of 20.2%, which is notably lower than several nearby schools, including Sunridge Elementary (24.8%) and William S. Maxey Elementary (24.2%), suggesting consistent student attendance that supports academic success.

A remarkable finding is the dramatic turnaround in math scores over the last three years. In the 2022-2023 school year, 4th and 5th-grade math proficiency was low at 45% and 38%, respectively, but by 2025-2026, those grades rebounded to 65% and 82%—a 44-point gain in 5th grade. This suggests effective changes in math instruction. While overall performance is strong, there is a slight dip in 5th-grade English Language Arts proficiency, declining from 81% to 71% over the same period, though still well above district and state averages. Compared to another local charter, Hope Charter, which excels in middle school math but has a weak 5th-grade science score (51%), Oakland Avenue Charter offers balanced, high performance across all subjects, making it a standout choice for elementary education.

What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, April 5, 2018

This school is a joke. My child's Kindergarten teacher was very mean and ineffective. The Principal is very rude and dresses in an unprofessional manner. I was aghast at how upset my child was everyday she came home from school. As a former Elementary Teacher I can say that this school, while having some decent stuff going for it, could use a lot of improvement. Close Quote
