Summary

Oakwood Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Hall County and Georgia state averages on standardized tests, with only 19.3% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts in 2024-2025, compared to 29.8% in Hall County and 34.9% statewide. The school has a low statewide ranking, placing between 632-972 out of 1,200-1,250 Georgia elementary schools over the past 10 years, and has maintained a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger. Additionally, Oakwood Elementary has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 63-78% over the past few years, significantly higher than the nearby Spout Springs Elementary, Chestnut Mountain Elementary, and Flowery Branch Elementary schools.

Despite spending more per student ($10,155-$11,744) compared to the nearby schools ($8,344-$11,178), Oakwood Elementary's academic performance appears to be declining over time, with proficiency rates dropping across multiple grade levels and subject areas. The school's struggles may be related to the unique challenges faced by its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and addressing these needs should be a priority for the school and Hall County School District.

Open Quote Awful school. No science or social studies because everyone focuses on the students that can’t read, which is almost everyone. Worst year of my child’s life. Close Quote
