Why We Give

Caldwell Family

Caldwells

“Watching our children learn and grow on this campus is something we will forever be grateful for. The nurturing environment at school has been a place for our kids to explore what their interests are.”

We are Chad and Oona Caldwell. Our children are Finn and Scarlett Caldwell. We have felt connected to the Oak Grove School community since the very start of our journey here, 10 years ago now. Our whole family has grown up together on this campus. Watching our children learn and grow on this campus is something we will forever be grateful for. The nurturing environment at school has been a place for our kids to explore what their interests are. They are encouraged to take risks in the classroom and set goals for themselves that they may or may not be able to achieve. This has allowed them to stretch in what they believe they can achieve. We feel that the more deeply we know ourselves the better prepared for life we are. Oak Grove School supports students to know themselves, and this is something we value as parents.

With gratitude,

Chad and Oona
