Oakwood Adventist Academy exists to provide a spiritual,
academic, social and service-oriented environment to develop,
nurture and affirm (DNA) students for a lifetime of service to God
and humanity. Oakwood Adventist Academy's mission and philosophy
seeks to fall in line with the North American Division of
Seventh-day Adventist's Educational mission and philosophy.
Adventist education seeks to develop a life of faith in God and
respect for the dignity of all human beings; to build character
akin to that of the Creator; to nurture thinkers rather than mere
reflectors of others' thoughts; to promote loving service rather
than selfish ambition; to ensure maximum development of each
individual's potential; and to embrace all that is true, good, and
beautiful. An education of this kind imparts far more than academic
knowledge. It fosters a balanced development of the whole person -
physically, intellectually, socially, and spiritually. Working
together, homes, schools, and churches cooperate with divine
agencies in preparing learners for responsible citizenship in this
world and in the world to come.
