School Overview

Oak Crest Middle sits in the heart of Encinitas, one of San Diego's most laid-back yet genuinely thriving coastal communities — the kind of place where surf culture and strong schools coexist without much tension. Feeding into the well-regarded San Dieguito Union district, Oak Crest consistently performs near the top of the state in English and math, making it a great fit for families who want rigorous academics without the pressure-cooker feel of more urban districts. If you're drawn to beach towns with a tight-knit community vibe and good public schools to match, Encinitas tends to check a lot of boxes.
