Our Programs

Oak Grove fosters an environment where students are encouraged to ask deep questions that flower from a truth within. The expansive 150-acre wooded campus, along with our focus on self-understanding, offers a safe space for deep inquiry, affectionate communication, and openness in the face of challenge, while infusing our days with a sense of ease and joyfulness.

The Art of Living and Learning expresses several overarching themes embedded in our school’s culture, curriculum, classroom practice, and expectations of student learning.

  • Early Childhood

    For many families, the Oak Grove journey begins in our Early Childhood Program. Our spacious indoor and outdoor classrooms are full of open-ended materials that invite creativity and exploration. Play is the work of early childhood and we take that seriously.

  • Elementary

    The elementary program offers a progressive approach to education which is steeped in collaboration and teamwork, creativity,  imagination, critical thinking and problem-solving. 

  • Middle School

    Our Middle School program honors the delicate yet sometimes challenging transition from childhood to adolescence. Our teachers aim to tap into each student’s unique interests through an exploration of one’s natural creativity, asking deep and abiding questions, practicing clear communication and engaging in vibrant thinking.

  • High School

    Oak Grove’s High School, which offers day and boarding options, balances a rigorous college-prep program with a focus on self-knowledge and an emphasis on our shared responsibility to the greater world. Our engaging curriculum challenges students both in knowledge of content and in skill development.  Project-based learning and small, discussion-based classes offer the space to explore topics deeply. Completion of our four-year course sequence meets and exceeds the requirements for entry into major colleges and universities.

  • Boarding

    Oak Grove’s residential program reimagines the High School boarding experience. Set in the peaceful and beautiful Ojai Valley, just 90 minutes from Los Angeles, Oak Grove offers flexible 7-day boarding to domestic and international students in 9th through 12th grades. Our family-style boarding facility provides a safe and friendly living and learning environment. Because some boarders live within an hour or two from Ojai, weekends can be spent with family, if desired.
