Blue Oaks Elementary

Summary:

Blue Oaks Elementary is a public elementary school in Roseville, California, serving 485 students in grades K-5 and part of the Roseville City Elementary District.

Blue Oaks Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state in academic assessments, with 59.77% of students proficient or better in ELA/Literacy and 64.17% in Mathematics, compared to 56.76% and 49.97% for the district, and 47.04% and 35.54% for California. The school also excels in CAST Science assessments, with 54.55% of students proficient or better, surpassing the district at 43.44% and the state at 30.7%. Blue Oaks' strong performance extends to Hispanic students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who rank among the top California elementary schools in their respective subgroups. However, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism rates, from 4.6% in 2018-2019 to 17.3% in 2022-2023, which may be linked to the rising percentage of economically disadvantaged students, from 20.22% in 2020-2021 to 42.89% in 2022-2023.

Compared to nearby schools, Junction Elementary, Fiddyment Farm, and Vencil Brown Elementary in the Roseville City Elementary District, Blue Oaks generally outperforms them in academic assessments. However, the nearby schools in the Dry Creek Joint Elementary District, such as Coyote Ridge Elementary and Heritage Oak Elementary, have similar or slightly lower academic performance compared to Blue Oaks. Notably, Rocklin Academy Gateway, a public charter school located about 2.35 miles from Blue Oaks, consistently outperforms the school in both ELA/Literacy and Mathematics assessments.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
