The Art of Relationship

Jodi Grass, Head of School

My relationship with Oak Grove began when I first visited the campus in 1997. I had never been to Ojai before. My husband Kevin and I came up for the day to see the Krishnamurti school. It was a weekend, so quiet, but I felt connected to this place instantly. This campus has a magic that is difficult to put into words.

It was a few years later, when we moved to Ojai, that I began conspiring to figure out a way to send our children here. At the time, I worked for a nonprofit, and Kevin had just been hired by the LA County Fire Department. Private school tuition was not in our budget.

Reflections on Relationship

A glimpse into a day at Oak Grove School. Each year we produce a video related to the school's theme for the year. This year's theme is wrapped into a seven-minute video portraying a typical day, from sunrise to moonrise. Tap above to watch.

Congratulations!

A massive cast and crew made the Oak Grove Theater performance of The Sound of Music a huge success. The musical was performed over two nights, to over 600 people. Heading the production was Oak Grove's theater director, Richa Badami, assisted by a full crew of parent and student volunteers, staff, and of course the student actors who bought the entire thing to life. Congratulations to all!

K Quote

How necessary it is for the mind to purge itself of all thought, to be constantly empty, not made empty, but simply empty; to die to all thought, to all of yesterday’s memories, and to the coming hour! It is simple to die, and it is hard to continue; for continuity is effort to be or not to be. Effort is desire, and desire can die only when the mind ceases to acquire. How simple it is just to live!
