While Oakland Elementary has shown some strengths, such as outperforming the state average in 4th grade English Language Arts and Science, the school's overall academic performance has declined in recent years, dropping from 145th out of 985 Tennessee elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 406th out of 1,009 in 2024-2025.

Friday, December 11, 2020

i went there from 2nd grade to 5th when it was first built. the teachers were amazing. The special area teachers are fun, and they have extra people to help the special needs kids. The playground got new things last year which hopefully no one has fallen off if it.. I wasnt able to really use the new things since i didnt attend there anymore but i know the other things were fun to play on. If you cant play outside your teacher would have things for you to play with inside. The school would do fundraisers too, some we could do activities in. I dont know if the teachers i had still teach at oakland, but i do know mrs. mccoin still does. Im unsure about what else to put, but it is an overall good school. Close Quote
