Our family has been a part of Oak City Academy for six years and counting. We have been with OCA since the day it's doors were opened and we have been honored to be part of such a unique school.

The teachers and staff have flawlessly combined the Montessori philosophy and Classical education in a Christian environment. When you walk into the classroom you will experience both a peaceful and efficient working environment. You may observe the teacher giving smaller group lessons, while other children may be working independently or with a friend. The Montessori philosophy allows each child the freedom to work at their own pace and not feel left behind or bored. It is in this environment that I've seen my children thrive and foster a deep love for learning.

Also, I believe that the curriculum is very rigorous. Our children are being challenged and prepared for what is ahead. I am proud to say that my children have been testing grade levels ahead of their actual age and that is due to the excellent education they are receiving at OCA.

Another value I see at OCA are the teachers and staff, themselves. They are the ones that set the tone of the school environment and classrooms and they have exceeded my expectations. When you choose to send your children to a school, you really want to know if their teachers are going to love them like you do. Of course, there is no replacing their own parent, but I am certain, because I have seen with my own eyes, that each of my child's teachers truly loves them and wants what is best for them. I know that I'm sending them off to a place where they can thrive and where their unique giftings will be celebrated.

We feel like we discovered a gold mine with Oak City Academy. We are so thankful to be a part of this school community and look forward to each new year. We hope that you will consider joining the OCA family.
