Sierra Oaks K-8

Summary:

Sierra Oaks K-8 is a public elementary school located in Sacramento, California, serving 615 students in grades K-8. The school is part of the San Juan Unified School District, which is ranked 923 out of 1,568 districts in the state.

Sierra Oaks K-8 faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism, with rates rising from 10.0% in 2017-2018 to 32.4% in 2022-2023, notably higher than the district average of 12.9%. The school also underperforms compared to the district and state in Smarter Balanced Assessments for English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 24.56% to 36.49% in ELA and 9.38% to 31.58% in Math in 2023-2024, compared to the district's 38.98% to 40.35% in ELA and 25.85% to 34.72% in Math. Additionally, Sierra Oaks K-8 struggles with the performance of certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 20% of California elementary schools for Asian, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students in ELA and Math.

While Sierra Oaks K-8 performs better than the nearby Greer Elementary, it is outperformed by the nearby Gateway International, a public charter school, as well as the high-performing Caleb Greenwood Elementary, a public school in the Sacramento City Unified School District. To address these issues, Sierra Oaks K-8 and the San Juan Unified School District may need to implement targeted interventions, strengthen family engagement, and explore best practices from the higher-performing schools in the area.

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.

I've never seen a school like this. Most of the kids are rude and bullies to others, while nearly every kid in my class makes racist jokes mostly about Asians, Muslims, and Blacks. I have never felt so uncomfortable and humiliated in my life. Not to mention that they demand money for these big field trips as if parents can just pop up with 400 dollars in their pockets(?) My science teacher even yelled at some girl so much that he made her cry. Take it from a student's point a view, don't waste your time. I can't wait to be graduating from this excuse of a school next week. Close Quote

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.
