Happy MLK Day, Oaks families!

We are grateful as a community for the way God uses men and women like Martin Luther King Jr. to create spaces for conversation regarding equality and value for human life and purpose.

Students at The Oaks Christian Academy spend two days a week at school with gifted teachers and a community of peers. The other three days of the week, they learn at home under the care and guidance of their parent.

REMINDER:
We're excited to be hosting our second informational meeting for Enrollment for the 2021-2022 academic year! The Informational Meeting is the first step in enrollment, and we will host it on the evening of March 11th.

Spots are already beginning to fill up, so if you have been wondering if The Oaks is the right choice for your family next year, this is your chance to find our more and begin the application process! We're excited and hopeful about what God is going to continue to do through The Oaks and our families next year.

🎁 We have some really incredible news to share on this Giving Tuesday!🎁

Some of our founding donors - out of commitment to the long term health of our school - have offered to match, or amplify, any amount you are able to give, up to $30,000. The match gift applies to donations made during November or December of 2020.

As you consider year end giving, please remember our school. Now is a time to count no gift too small, and to each do what we can to join our founding donors in their efforts to secure low tuition rates, excellent staff, and operational health at The Oaks.
We are thrilled by the way God has provided, and we are hopeful when we think about the future.

Thank you for joining us in this good work! You may click the link below to make a donation:
