Angus Valley Elementary is a kindergarten-through-fifth-grade public school in the Sand Springs district, located in a western Tulsa suburb that has a traditional downtown, a mix of older residential neighborhoods and newer growth areas, and a self-described family atmosphere. The school is one of several elementaries serving the community.
The student body is predominantly white, with a meaningful share of students who identify as two or more races and a smaller but present share of Hispanic and American Indian or Alaska Native students. The school serves just under four hundred students across kindergarten through fifth grade. The district did not provide free-or-reduced-price lunch eligibility data in the available records, and data on students with individualized education programs and English learners was also missing, meaning the full picture of student support needs is not clear from this release.
On state assessments administered in the 2024-25 school year, Angus Valley Elementary’s results show a mixed picture and one that parents will want to examine closely. In math, the share of students scoring proficient or above was highest in fourth grade and lowest in third grade, with fifth grade performing closer to the third-grade level. In English language arts, proficiency rates were below one in four students across all three tested grades, with third grade posting the lowest rate. Fifth-grade science results were suppressed from public reporting, so no conclusion can be drawn about that subject. These proficiency numbers position the school as falling below a level many families would hope to see, particularly in reading. The school’s composite proficiency index across all tested subjects and grades places it above the midpoint among districts in Tulsa County, a reminder that the county-wide context includes wide variation, but the absolute rates themselves remain an area a parent should explore directly with the school to understand what supports are in place and how the school is working to raise achievement.
No data was available on chronic absenteeism, discipline rates, course offerings, staffing ratios, or gifted and talented programs. For a K-5 school, many of those measures may not apply in the same way they would for a secondary school, but their absence means families will need to get that information from the district or the school directly.
The housing market in the school’s zip code shows home values and rents that are broadly in line with state-level benchmarks, and mortgage rates in the wider economy have been running around the national average. The community itself is growing at a steady pace, with the most notable development being a planned Google data center just north of town, approved in early 2026, which will bring construction activity and likely add to the local tax base in coming years. The district brief found no publicly reported recent changes of lasting impact for Sand Springs Public Schools, so that piece of the picture is stable for now.
Angus Valley Elementary is a mid-sized suburban elementary school where families will find a socioeconomically mixed community in a growing city, but where academic proficiency numbers, especially in English language arts, are soft enough to warrant a direct conversation with the school about instruction and intervention. The school’s position relative to other Tulsa County districts is above the midpoint in overall proficiency, but that reflects a county-wide spread that includes many lower-performing schools. The available data does not give a full account of student support programs or school climate, so a family’s next step should be a visit and a set of questions about how the school addresses the gaps the test results reveal.
