Oak Street School consistently ranks in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with performance on state assessments generally below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 38.1% to 50%, compared to the district's 34.95% to 45.56% and the state's 54.07% to 56.61%. Similarly, in math, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 26.79% to 36.51%, while the district and state had higher rates of 30% to 59.7%. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American students performing relatively well, but White students, students with special needs, and low-income students struggling compared to their peers statewide.

When compared to other nearby elementary schools, such as Arthur P. Momot Elementary and Thomas E. Glasgow Elementary within the Plattsburgh City School District, Oak Street School's performance is generally lower. However, the school's performance is significantly lower than schools in other nearby districts, such as Mooers Elementary and Chazy Central Rural Elementary, particularly in math and science. Despite increased per-student spending and a decrease in the student-teacher ratio, Oak Street School's performance has remained relatively stagnant over the past several years, suggesting the need for more targeted and effective interventions to support student learning and achievement.
