Some of our favorite things about being a Timberwolf are school pride, family involvement, and especially the fun traditions they carry on each year - Teddy Bear parade, Howlabration, Dancefest, Specialist Night, just to name a few. #UniteThePack #HearUsHowl #OnceATimberwolfAlwaysATimberwolfParent Review5y ago - Oak City Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOak City has been a second home for my children and an extension of our family for the past 7 years. Each teacher and staff member is incredible and committed to leading children to Jesus while the whole child grows and develops into who God has made them to be. Incredible education proven by well above grade level test results. This is a place where children thrive and love to learn!Parent Review1y ago - Oak City Academy
