Oakwood School is a coeducational K-12 independent day school. It was founded in 1951 by a group of parents who wanted to provide their children with an educational experience that was rich in the arts, sciences, and humanities and challenging to their creative and intellectual capacities. We intend an Oakwood Education: Finally, we recognize that the school can achieve its aims only when students experiences are predominantly positive and joyful, and when their relationships with teachers are affectionate and trusting.
