Summary

Oakmont Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Dickson, Tennessee, serving 482 students as part of Dickson County Schools. The school sits right at the statewide middle, ranking 514th out of 1,019 elementary schools (50th percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–26, with a rank that has been essentially flat for four years after peaking in the 75th–76th percentile in 2016–17 through 2020–21. Within its own district, Oakmont ranks ahead of only Dickson Elementary School, while nearby Stuart Burns Elementary School, Centennial Elementary School, and The Discovery School all rank considerably higher.

Math is Oakmont's relative strength, with 45.8% of students proficient, slightly above the district (44.6%) and state (43.0%). But English language arts proficiency is just 38.9% — below the district's 43.8% — and science proficiency is 44.4%, roughly 9 points behind the district average. The most striking pattern is a 5th-grade drop-off: 4th-grade math proficiency is a strong 63.1%, but falls to 29.9% in 5th grade versus the district's 48.4%. A similar decline appears in ELA, with 5th-grade proficiency at 28.6% versus the district's 48.4%. For comparison, The Discovery School, just 1.57 miles away, posts 61.9% ELA proficiency — a 23-point gap — and Stuart Burns Elementary School, Centennial Elementary School, Charlotte Elementary School, and Vanleer Elementary School also outperform Oakmont in ELA and science.

Oakmont serves some student groups well: African American students rank at the 59th percentile statewide and special education students at the 59th percentile. However, white students (33rd percentile), Hispanic students (19th percentile), and male students (34th percentile) lag behind their statewide peers. Chronic absenteeism has improved from 18.6% to 14.2% — better than the state average — though Stuart Burns Elementary School (8.8%) and The Discovery School (8.9%) have much lower rates. Oakmont also spends $15,474 per student, more than Stuart Burns Elementary School, Centennial Elementary School, Charlotte Elementary School, White Bluff Elementary School, and The Discovery School, several of which post stronger results. The bottom line: Oakmont is a mid-tier school with genuine strengths in early-grade math and special education support, but it faces clear challenges in 5th grade, literacy, and science.
