Summary

Oakdale School is a K–5 elementary school serving 340 students in Sandy, Utah, within the Canyons District. It is located in an area with several nearby elementary schools, many about 1–1.7 miles away. The district ranks 36th of 92 Utah districts, at the 61st percentile statewide. Oakdale has a history of strong performance, but its latest results show a notable decline that parents may want to understand.

Oakdale’s statewide ranking fell from the 81st percentile in 2024–2025 to the 52nd percentile in 2025–2026, ranking 269th of 563 Utah elementary schools. Third grade is a clear strength: proficiency reached 60.7% in English language arts and 67.2% in mathematics, both above district and state averages. However, results dropped considerably in fourth and fifth grades. Fourth-grade proficiency was 43.3% in English language arts and 40.6% in mathematics, while fifth-grade English language arts was 42.7%. Science performance was also below district and state averages in both tested grades. These results contrast sharply with nearby schools such as Peruvian Park School, Canyon View School, Brookwood School, and Quail Hollow School, which posted much higher recent rankings and proficiency rates.

Attendance is another important concern. Oakdale’s chronic absenteeism rate was 30.1% in 2024–2025, compared with 18.8% districtwide and 23.8% statewide. That was among the highest rates in the nearby comparison group, well above Quail Hollow School at 10.5%. Oakdale’s student-teacher ratio also rose from 18.5 to 21.2 over three years. Together, the upper-grade achievement decline, attendance challenges, and increased ratio suggest areas for families to ask about, particularly fourth- and fifth-grade instruction, attendance supports, staffing, and plans to restore the school’s previously strong performance.
