Summary

Oak Ridge is a public elementary school in East Sandwich, Massachusetts, a Cape Cod town in the Sandwich district, serving 673 students in grades 3–6 as the upper-elementary counterpart to Forestdale School (PK–2). It is a sustained top-quartile school: in 2025–2026 it ranked 234th of 899 ranked elementary schools statewide, placing in the 74th percentile with 4 stars — in line with 2024–2025 and just below its 2023–2024 peak of 78th percentile. The long-term trend is strongly upward, from the 43rd percentile and 2 stars in 2015–2016. On 2025–2026 MCAS tests, proficiency was 51.95% in English language arts, 54.3% in math, and 69.01% in science, above the district and well above the state in all three subjects.

Science is the clearest standout. Oak Ridge's 69.01% science proficiency is 28 percentage points above the state's 40.98% and far ahead of same-grade neighbors: Quashnet Intermediate School (36.89%), Bourne Intermediate School (27.93%), and Barnstable United Elementary School (32.84%). Those same-grade peers rank in the 24th–43rd percentile, far below Oak Ridge's 74th, and Oak Ridge also leads them in ELA and math. Grade-level math results get stronger as students move up — 45.96% in grade 3, 43.71% in grade 4, 59.88% in grade 5, and 67.1% in grade 6. Fourth-grade math is the one relative soft spot, slightly below the district's 44.81% and only a bit above the state's 43.2%. ELA stays steady across grades, in the 49%–54% range, all above the state.

The school's subgroup results — which measure how effectively it serves particular student groups relative to other schools statewide — are a major strength, with low-income students ranking in the 93rd percentile (5 stars) and students with disabilities around the 60th percentile, still above median. Resources look moderate rather than exceptional: per-student spending was $20,986 in 2020–2021 and the student-teacher ratio was 11.8 in 2024–2025, both mid-range among nearby schools, so results do not appear to come from unusually small classes or high spending. Free/reduced-lunch data is unavailable here, so the school's economic makeup cannot be quantified directly.
