Northridge Elementary

Northridge Elementary sits in Fair Oaks, a leafy, unincorporated community just east of Sacramento known for its small-town feel, tree-lined streets, and the beloved Fair Oaks Village with its famous chickens roaming freely. The school serves families in a mixed neighborhood and, while academics are still developing — particularly in English — there's room for growth that some families find appealing when paired with strong community involvement. Families drawn to the area's outdoor lifestyle, close proximity to the American River Parkway, and the charm of suburban Sacramento life will find Fair Oaks itself a genuinely pleasant place to put down roots.
