History
Ozark Adventist Academy, located on Dawn Hill E. Road just off
Arkansas Highway 59 between Gentry and Siloam Springs, Arkansas,
has become a tradition that grew out of a little community church
school that was first established about 1900. In time, it became
Flint Creek Junior Academy and operated as a locally-supported
school until 1941, at which time it was taken over by the
Conference and became Ozark Academy. In 1976 the name was changed
to Ozark Adventist Academy. Students graduating from Ozark
Adventist Academy can be proud of the fine Christian education they
have received, set in place by philosophy and goals uniquely
designed to maintain the spirit of its fine background.
