Oak Hill Elementary

Summary:

Oak Hill Elementary is a public elementary school located in Herndon, Virginia, serving grades PK-6 with a student population of around 700 and part of the Fairfax County Public Schools district.

Oak Hill Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Virginia, with students outperforming the Fairfax County and Virginia state averages in SOL assessments for Mathematics and English Reading. The school has a diverse student population, with a significant Asian student population (38.57%) and a relatively even distribution of White (43%) and other racial groups, which is higher than many of the surrounding schools like Coates Elementary and Brookfield Elementary. Additionally, Oak Hill Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.9 to 15.5 students per teacher, and spends a relatively high amount per student, ranging from $9,072 to $10,550 per student over the past three school years.

The consistent academic excellence and diverse student population at Oak Hill Elementary appear to be correlated, a pattern not seen at all nearby schools. While some schools, such as Crossfield Elementary, have a higher spending per student, they do not necessarily have the same level of academic performance as Oak Hill Elementary. This suggests that the school's success may be attributed to a combination of factors, including resource allocation and student demographics, making it an exceptional example within the Fairfax County Public Schools district.

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.
