Summary

Oak Creek Elementary School is a 5-star, K–5 school serving 402 students at 55 Kingsgate Rd in Lake Oswego, Oregon, one of the elementary schools in Lake Oswego School District 7J, the #2-ranked district in Oregon out of 141. Oak Creek has earned 5 stars in every year on record, from 2014-15 through 2025-26, and has never placed below the 91st percentile statewide — currently 45th of 709 elementary schools in 2025-26, putting it in the top 7% of the state.

Within its immediate area, Oak Creek ranks 6th of 11 nearby schools and is the lowest-ranked of the five Lake Oswego elementaries in that comparison — yet it is still a top-decile school. Science is its one clear academic soft spot: 49.4% of 5th graders met the standard, last among Lake Oswego elementaries, 13.5 points below the district's 5th-grade rate and 33 points behind Westridge Elementary School (82.5%). Attendance is a genuine strength: 10.9% chronic absenteeism is about one-third of Oregon's rate. Notably, Oak Creek serves the highest-need population of the Lake Oswego elementaries compared here (17.91% free/reduced lunch). Nearby Stephenson Elementary School, in Portland School District 1J, reports more than double that rate (41.75%) while outperforming Oak Creek in every subject — a useful benchmark. Crossing into Tigard-Tualatin School District 23J corresponds to a drop of roughly 20-35 proficiency points.

Oak Creek's subgroup results are its most striking feature: its low-income students ranked 8th of 518 schools statewide (98th percentile) in 2024-25, above the school's own overall standing — an unusual result — while gifted and talented students rose from the 26th percentile in 2021-22 to the 91st-92nd, and special education students reached the 80th percentile. The school is also absorbing significant change without academic slippage: its free/reduced-lunch rate roughly doubled in three years (8.76% to 17.91%) while per-pupil spending rose 26.7% and chronic absenteeism improved from 17.9% to 10.9%. Overall, Oak Creek is a consistent top-decile school in an elite district — strongest in attendance and in results for its lower-income and gifted students, relatively softer in science, and stable at 5 stars.
