Summary

Oak Grove Elementary is a small K–5 school in Milwaukie, Oregon, serving 262 students as part of North Clackamas School District 12, in a community where roughly 69% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024-25.

The biggest story here is steady improvement. Four years ago Oak Grove ranked at the 10th percentile of Oregon schools; it has since climbed 236 places to the 44th percentile, and chronic absenteeism has fallen from 43.2% to 29.8% — now better than both the district and the state. Even so, the school remains a 2-star school and still ranks below the district it belongs to, which sits at the 66th percentile statewide.

Math is the clear priority. Oak Grove beats both its district and the state in English language arts (45.8), but trails the district by 6.5 points in math (26.4), and the gap widens as students get older: 32.4% proficiency in 3rd grade falls to 21.1% by 5th, with the widest gap in 4th-grade math (−14.1 points vs. the district). The school also appears to get strong results from its low-income students, who rank at the 65th percentile — well above the school's overall standing. For context, Oak Grove closely resembles nearby Milwaukie El Puente Elementary School in both scores and community, while Sojourner School produces much higher results on roughly $5,800 less per student, and Linwood Elementary School spends about as much as Oak Grove but ranks near the bottom. Just 1.3–1.8 miles away, Riverdale Grade School, Forest Hills Elementary School and Hallinan Elementary School in Lake Oswego School District 7J rank among Oregon's top schools — a reminder that school boundaries here separate very different outcomes.
