I've went to this school ever since I was in kindergarden and I've been on Honor roll ever since and this school is great and the teachers are great. The principal lets the kids get away with stupid stuff sometimes but other than that it's a great school I'm on the Volleyball team, the team is great amd the coaches are awesome I love them to pieces and I love the school so as long as I have to go to school I'm staying at Oak Park Academy.

My children went here for 3 years. The children from this church were the meanest and foul mouthed children i ever met. When i brought this to the principal's attention, he would not do anything to the children unless they did not go to the church. When i took my children out and put them into another school, they were 2 years behind. How could this have happened when they were above and beyond at crossroads. This school is not registered with the state and is not up to the state's teaching standards.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

Test scores
Ratings details

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.

Average

Above
average

Our rating (from 1 to 10) reflects a school's overall performance. The higher the rating, the more likely the school will prepare your child for the future, so choose an above-average school (8-10) if possible. For average schools (4-7), do careful research and look for evidence that the school has high-quality programs. For below-average schools (1-3), take caution; a low-performing school may not provide the instruction or environment your child needs to learn, and you may need to supplement classroom lessons at home.

Academic rating

The academic rating is made up of equally-weighted parts: students' test scores, their academic growth (for elementary and middle schools) and their readiness for college (for high schools). Unfortunately, this school doesn't have sufficient data to generate an academic rating.
