I attended this school during my elementary years and loved it. I would have stayed but at that time they only went thru 6th grade The staff and teachers were always pushing me to learn and encouraging me to do my best. I am grateful for having the opportunity to attend.

I am a parent of two boys at Okeechobee Christian Academy and amazed at the academic excellence that my children are receiving there. My children have grown abundantly in Christ and the understanding of serving Him. I am grateful for our principle Mr. Nick Reynolds and the leadership and love for our children at OCA. I thank God for the opportunity to have my children learning Gods truth everyday and how to put it into action. Thank you OCA.

As far as a christian school is concerned, it rates a 5, but as far as all of the other issues, it lacks severely. No extracurricular activities. No PTA. Most of the teachers are personally great, but not all are certified teachers, and the student to teacher ratio is higher than it should be. There are no honors classes. There is no guidance counselor. And, the principal changes just about every year. And the fund raisers..... don't even get me started!

My daughter has been enrolled at this school for her entire shcool life and I thank God for enabling her to be a part of this family. The staff has always been supportive, encouraging and available. My daughter is a beautiful young lady and I share the credit of her upbringing with the Godly, wonderful staff, past and present, of this great little school. where God's presence is so obvious

We test kids at the end of the year and beginning. Kids that don't keep up during the summer take a giant step backwards. If our kids do complain about homework, we ask them,"Do you want to work for a company, or own the company?"

No. Let the children have a break. Let their minds focus on being children. They'll have plenty of homework when they go back to school. I would not even consider enforceing summer homework for my children. They need stress free playtime.

Yes. Of course summer is for fun however they can take a brake from homework 2 weeks or so, not the whole summer. If you teach a child the importance of learing they will enjoy the homework even in the summer.
