Summary

Oakmont Elementary School is a PK–5 school at 5666 Oakmont Dr in Columbus, OH 43232, serving 307 students as part of Columbus City Schools District, which ranks 683rd of 773 Ohio districts (12th percentile, 1 star). Oakmont's own statewide position is 1,330th of 1,560 schools (15th percentile, 1 star) in 2025-26 — roughly in line with its district. Ten years of rankings show persistent bottom-quartile results: 15th percentile in 2015-16, a modest peak of 26th in 2022-23, then back to 15th for 2024-25 and 2025-26.

Within about two miles, Oakmont ranks 2nd of six Columbus City elementaries, ahead of Shady Lane, Woodcrest, Liberty and Leawood and behind Olde Orchard Alt. Reading is the relative strength: 4th-grade ELA (51.1%) tops that peer group and sits only about 11 points below the state average, and 3rd- and 4th-grade ELA both beat district averages. Science is the clear weakness — 5th-grade science at 16.7% is the lowest figure in the whole comparison and 46 points below the state. Grade 5 is consistently the weak link: 5th-grade math has posted 38.1%, 32.5%, 26.1% and 18.6% over four years, and the 4th-to-5th-grade math drop is roughly three times steeper than the state's. Oakmont trails every nearby school outside its district — Tussing, Dunloe, Herbert Mills, and the charters Performance Academy Eastland and Zenith Academy East — and has the highest chronic absenteeism of that group.

Absenteeism is the school's clearest success: chronic absenteeism fell 24.5 points over four years to 33.4% in 2024-25, about 15.5 points below the district, though it climbed back to 38.3% in 2025-26. Its strongest subgroup result is African American students at the 38th percentile (2 stars), well above the school-wide standing, while English Language Learner students slipped from the 45th to the 14th percentile in two years. Class size is an asset at 18 students per teacher, and per-student spending ($11,483) is mid-pack; Herbert Mills spends about $2,600 less and outperforms Oakmont on most measures, so funding and class size alone do not explain the gap.

Principal only cares about test scores and her reputation. She is actively creating an environment where fighting is encouraged to make to one tougher. She makes students leave in ways that have to illegal if they cause her too much trouble Close Quote

From the time you walk in Oakmont Elementary School from the office personnel we went to the teachers,. Also the safety of the children is also put into care and effort led by mrs. Fairchild. The school has a very good friendly spirit. Our teacher is Miss Brucker and Miss Fida, both are very cordial professional and extremely devoted women in the field of teachers. My name is Steven dodero and my child's name is Levi and we're very happy campers Close Quote
