Summary

Oxford Elementary School in Oxford, MI, serves 340 students in grades 3 through 5 and is part of the Oxford Community Schools district, which ranks in the 65th percentile statewide.

Oxford Elementary is a solid academic performer, currently holding a 3-star state ranking (68th percentile) for the 2025-2026 school year, a slight dip from its recent 4-star ratings in the prior two years. The school's standout achievement is its dramatic reduction in chronic absenteeism, which fell from 26.4% to just 7.0% in a single year—far better than the district average of 32.3% and even comparable to top schools in the neighboring Lake Orion Community Schools district, like Webber School (7.1%). The school also excels in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates between 46% and 52.9% across all grade levels, above both district and state averages. Additionally, Oxford Elementary spends a substantial $16,253 per student and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.6, which is lower (better) than many high-performing Lake Orion schools.

While Oxford Elementary is a strong choice within its district, families should note that several nearby Lake Orion schools, including Webber School, Stadium Drive Elementary School, and Paint Creek Elementary School, generally achieve higher state rankings and test scores. However, Oxford Elementary performs exceptionally well with its students from low socio-economic status backgrounds, ranking in the 84th percentile statewide for this subgroup. The school's math scores are more variable—3rd graders hit 61.1% proficiency, but 4th graders dropped to 38.5%, below the state average. This inconsistency, along with a noticeable dip in scores across most subjects for the 2025-2026 school year, may point to a challenging cohort or an area for targeted instructional support. Overall, Oxford Elementary offers strong ELA instruction, impressive attendance improvements, and dedicated support for its most vulnerable students.
