A Message from our Superintendent
Welcome to Oakland Christian School!
As a proud alumna, parent of an OCS graduate, and now Superintendent, it is a privilege to be part of a school community that has meant so much to me personally.
At Oakland Christian, we are blessed with excellent programs, opportunities, and facilities, but those things alone are not what change students’ lives.
The people inside them will.
Every day, our teachers, coaches, support staff, and administrators invest in our students academically, spiritually, and personally. Together, we are committed to our mission of equipping students to pursue their unique, God-given purpose.
That mission is lived out through our four Core Values: We Aim High. We Work Hard. We Care Deeply. We Put Faith First.
We Aim High by pursuing excellence and providing an education that prepares students for the future while helping them discover and develop the gifts God has placed within them.
We Work Hard because we believe students grow when they are challenged to do difficult things. With encouragement, support, and instruction, students develop confidence, perseverance, and resilience as they discover what they are capable of accomplishing.
We Care Deeply. This value is woven into the community of Oakland Christian School. Our teachers know their students well. Our coaches mentor beyond the playing field. Our staff faithfully serve behind the scenes. And our parents, grandparents, churches, and families partner with us in countless ways to support and pray for our students.
Above all, we Put Faith First. This is the privilege and distinctiveness of Christian education. We want our students to move beyond simply knowing about God to trusting Him, following Him, and placing Him first in every area of their lives. Our desire is that they leave Oakland Christian with a deep confidence in Christ and a faith that shapes their decisions, relationships, and future.
As a parent, I have had the privilege of watching this mission become personal. I have seen firsthand how the OCS community challenged my son to pursue excellence, surrounded him with people who cared deeply for him, strengthened his faith, and prepared him for what God has called him to do.
It is a reminder that our Core Values are not simply words on a website or banners on a wall. They are commitments we strive to live every day.
As an alumna, a parent, and Superintendent, I cannot think of a greater joy than watching another generation of students experience all that Oakland Christian has to offer.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our school. I invite you to explore our website, visit our campus, and discover what makes the Oakland Christian community so special.
With gratitude,
Susan Brock
Superintendent
