Pre-K to 8, Algebra 1, and Geometry
Does Pre-K to 8 function as one item and necessitate the oxford comma, or is not really an oxford comma in this case because Algebra and Geomtry are not part of the same range as Pre-K to 8?

The list doesn't really make much sense as a list because the items in it are not members of the same class. Normally when there is a change in the kind of item in a list, there's more than a comma to signal the change: The school offers grades pre-K to 8, along with intramural sports and music instruction.
