GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Oakley is a caring neighborhood school that supports all students in developing academic and leadership skills. With greater diversity than most area schools and a Spanish-English dual language program, it truly prepares students to engage with their world. Our children have been there for four years now and we are very happy with our decision.

I’m just curious....as a former parent who witnessed the bigotry and discrimination of former principal of Oakley, Michael Benigno—-why does his personal LinkedIn profile still state that HE is the principal of Oakley?
