Summary

West Oxford Elementary is a public elementary school serving 461 students in grades PK-5 in Oxford, North Carolina, which is part of the Granville County Schools district.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, West Oxford Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. The school's proficiency rates in Math and Reading were significantly lower than the district and state averages in the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, West Oxford Elementary has been consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of elementary schools in North Carolina over the past several years, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The high percentage of students from low-income families at West Oxford Elementary, with over 90% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, likely contributes to the school's academic struggles. In comparison, nearby schools in the Granville County district, such as Mount Energy Elementary, Tar River Elementary, and Wilton Elementary, generally perform better academically. Addressing the unique needs of West Oxford Elementary's student population and implementing evidence-based strategies to improve teaching and learning will be crucial in driving academic improvement at the school.
