The Arrow Fall 2021

Have You Heard of the OHA Parents’ Association? The Oak Hill Academy Parents’ Association (PA) was established several years ago as a venue for OHA families to connect and to support the mission of the Academy. In fact, the Oak Hill Mission Statement itself conveys the school’s emphasis on relationship-building in its commitment to:

“…fostering relationships among students, families, and our school….”

Oak Hill Academy believes in equipping our students to thrive, and we want nothing less for their families. Because OHA is 100% boarding, we welcome our students to get involved with campus life; likewise, we encourage our families to participate in the life of the school.

Purpose The Oak Hill Academy Parents’ Association serves four main functions. • To enrich the students’ experience • To establish connections with the Academy and among families • To support the mission of the Academy • To represent the Academy to external constituents
