Oakwood is a magical school. I have never experienced this level of parent involvment and caring, committed teachers, at any other school. My oldest is now in college, so I've seen lots of schools. The small class sizes are important, but it's the extra effort from the teachers that make each lesson an active learning experience. We're staying, hopefully through high school!
My three children have graduated from Oakwood eighth grade. I could not be happier with their overall school experience. They learned, explored, and grew into wonderful teenagers that excelled academically, socially, and athletically at a very competitive private high school. Oakwood gave them all of the tools to be successful!
My kids have been at Oakwood for 5 years and each year I have seen the school go further downhill. The education is spotty at best and definitely not up to par with other private schools in the area. I have removed my kids and they are now attending other private schools.
I graduated from Oakwood after being there since kindergarten. Overall I had a good experience, but I definitely had some bad teachers. The electives are great, but some of the academic classes need help. I had to take algebra again after taking it during eighth grade and not being able to understand my teacher. The school doesn't try and form to the students needs and it's just too bad if you're unhappy or having problems.
