Summary:
The 95361 zip code area is home to 12 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Oakdale Joint Unified District, except for Mesa Verde Elementary which is part of the Riverbank Unified District, and Valley Home Elementary and Knights Ferry Elementary which are part of their own respective districts.
Among the standout schools in the area are Cloverland Elementary and Sierra View Elementary, both of which rank in the top 30% of California elementary schools and earn 4 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. These schools have particularly strong test scores, with over 50% proficiency in both ELA and Math. The public charter high school, Oakdale Charter, also stands out with a 100% 4-year graduation rate and 0% dropout rate.
However, the data also reveals significant variation in school performance, even within the same district. For example, while the high schools generally have strong graduation rates, the alternative and online schools, such as Valley Oak Online Learning Academy and East Stanislaus High, struggle with lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism rates. This highlights the unique challenges faced by these types of schools and the importance of targeted interventions to support student success.
