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.

Teachers don't call back, don't care and the administration is disinterested in actually teaching. Most kids have to get tutors in order to learn anything

People at the location of my current education do not understand the importance of health and safety. They take advantage of people who are not in the position.

Middle Schools get a bad rep. OC is a great school. I have a a daughter going into 8th and she loves the school, vibe, classes. My son also went there and is now at LCC. He had a super experience. Great staff, safe, good kids

Great middle school. My son is an 8th grader and has had a super experience at Oak Crest. His teachers are fabulous, admin great, and the schedule is perfect. I'm not sure why people would rate this school anything less than 4-5 stars. I wish this was my middle school back in the day.

I believe this school is a amazing environment for my children. They love the teachers, the people, the classes! It is lovely! My daughter had to distance learn last year and the school helped her grades stay A-Okay! She has met some of her best friends and favorite teachers! Electives are amazingly...
