The school currently ranks 138th of 371 Oregon middle schools (63rd percentile, 3 stars), a small uptick from recent years but not a return to its earlier 81st-percentile standing in 2014–15. Most nearby schools are larger and farther away; the closest, Sutherlin Middle School, is 2.45 miles away with 297 students.

Every tested grade beats the state average, with 7th grade especially strong at 61%. Science is also solid at 34.0%, above the state's 30.6%. Math is the main gap. At 22.9% proficiency, Oakland trails the state (32.9%) and the larger Roseburg schools, Joseph Lane Middle School (30.7%) and John C Fremont Middle School (30.3%). Grades 6 (17.6%) and 7 (16.9%) are far below state, though 8th grade math (32.6%) is above it. Glide Middle School posts the lowest nearby math result at 14.7%.

Attendance stands out: chronic absenteeism is 21.4%, well below the state's 33.5% and far below nearby schools (30.7%–38.1%). Oakland spends $21,149 per student, the most among nearby schools, while also having the highest student-teacher ratio (17.3), and its free/reduced lunch share has climbed from 48.65% in 2022–23 to 78.53% in 2024–25. In subgroup rankings, students from low-income families perform strongly relative to other Oregon schools, female students consistently outrank male students, and special education results vary widely year to year. Overall, Oakland pairs strong reading, solid science, and excellent attendance with a real math challenge, especially in grades 6 and 7.
