About Our School

Oak Meadow Elementary is located in beautiful El Dorado Hills, California, and is one of six elementary school sites in the Buckeye Union School District.  With an enrollment of about 500 students, we are home to students with diverse cultural, language, and socio-economic backgrounds, making us one of the most diverse schools in the district. 

Cooperation, compassion, and diversity are celebrated in a safe and nurturing environment and our mission is to provide meaningful educational experiences that encourage lifelong learning.  We work together with our families and community to support and develop each child intellectually, physically, socially, and emotionally. Our school mascot, the raptor, reflects our desire to soar to new heights in learning each day.

We provide a quality, standards-based curriculum that ensures every child will meet or exceed proficiency.  In addition, many special programs provide support and educational opportunities for our students, including an after-school extended day program, cross-age buddies, a technology partnership with Intel, and push-in/out intervention programs.

Parent participation and support are critical to the success of our school programs.  Our school-wide art program, Meet the Masters, is taught by parent volunteers and brings a quality arts education to all of our students.  Parents and staff serve on the School Site Council, Budget, Master Plan, Wellness, and Technology Committees to provide input into our school and district LCAP.   Our P.T.O. also plays an important role in generating and donating funds that greatly enhance the school’s existing programs. 

We are a National Blue Ribbon and California Distinguished School and we invite you to become a part of the family. Call or stop by to learn more about our school and the programs and support we offer to our students.  We know you will come to love Oak Meadow as much as we do.
