Helping children to build the muscle of gratitude can also aid in a sense of humility – when we can see how interdependent we are on others for everything we have, everything we are, from the most basic level.
Join us on Tuesday, December 2nd for an adult-only rotation through classes to meet our faculty, learn about the curriculum, and Discover Oak Grove High School.
In today’s fast-paced, screen-filled world, Oak Grove stands out as a breath of fresh air: a low-tech space focused on outdoor learning, mindfulness, and real connections.
For all three Oak Grove educators, the experience reaffirmed their connection to Krishnamurti’s educational vision and strengthened their ties to the wider KFI network.
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 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.”
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.
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.

At Oak Grove High School, students are known. They’re supported with kindness, given space to grow, and inspired to explore who they are – not just prepare for what’s next. Founded 50 years ago in Ojai, CA, by educational thought leader J. Krishnamurti, Oak Grove School offers small class sizes, global experiences, a college-preparatory curriculum, and a non-competitive environment where intelligence, creativity, and compassion can flourish.
Oak Grove is currently accepting high school applications for the 2026/27 school year. Discover Oak Grove High School @ oakgroveschool.com/discover (link in bio)

A few pics from our recent 7th and 8th-grade trip to Wyoming`s Teton Science School @tetonnationalpark . Guided by the amazing staff @tetonscience , students and chaperones use cross-country skis, snowshoes, vans, and even a horse-drawn carriage to observe wildlife such as moose, elk, and bald eagles. As with outdoor education program across all grades, our annual field trip to the Teton Science Schools truly embodies the Art of Living and Learning. As one student noted: “During the trip I learned that you should always enter an activity with an open mind.”
