School Overview

Sierra Avenue Elementary sits in Oroville, a small Northern California city tucked along the Feather River at the foot of the Sierra Nevada foothills — a community with a strong working-class identity and plenty of outdoor character. The school serves families in the Thermalito Union district, where science tends to be a relative bright spot compared to English and math. Families who are engaged and looking to supplement their child's education at home, or who value a tight-knit neighborhood school experience over academic rankings, may find a comfortable fit here.
