This month I traveled to New York City, meeting with alumni and longtime Oak Grove donors. Seeing how our alumni carry Oak Grove into the world, I am reminded of the deep roots our school has nurtured over fifty years.

As autumn paints our school garden with vibrant hues, we’re thrilled to share the heartfelt, organic magic unfolding in our outdoor gardens. The children’s creativity and connection to nature are blooming!

We support Oak Grove because we know just how transformative its education can be for students and the wider world. It is a place where students can learn more than just the content of traditional subjects.

We are deeply touched to be recognized as “Best Private School in Ojai” for the tenth year in a row in Ojai Valley News’ 2025 edition of “Best of Ojai.”

Peace Week invites our students and staff to explore the notion of peace in their own lives and in our shared world.

We’re thrilled to share the latest from our school garden program, a heartfelt space where our community connects with nature and each other.

More than just the financial numbers, our Annual Report is a magazine-style publication filled with stories, letters, news, and donor gratitude.

What began 50 years ago, with just a few children and teachers sitting cross-legged in the grass, has blossomed into a vibrant, thriving community.

Join Us May 16-17, 2026! Our 50th anniversary events will be open to anyone who has been part of the Oak Grove School community over the past 50 years – everyone is welcome.

From joyful skips to heartfelt hugs, and high-fives flying everywhere, it was wonderful to see the community together again. This year is extra special as we celebrate Oak Grove’s 50th anniversary — a milestone that makes today’s beginning even brighter.
