Oak Hill Academy is a non-military, Baptist-affiliated boarding school that provides college preparatory education for young men and women, grades 8-12. Set in the heart of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, our safe, nurturing environment combines structure with self-reliance, and discipline with discovery. Challenging academics, small class sizes, attentive staff, and a close-knit community are ideal for domestic and international students alike.

Since 1878, we have served students of all races, religions, nationalities, and levels of academic ability. Through a highly structured curriculum that focuses on accountability and self-discipline, we create for students the ideal conditions in which to succeed.

Our philosophy is based on four beliefs:

1. Deep down inside, all children are good.
2. Regardless of academic ability, every child is capable of success.
3. All children would rather succeed than fail.
4. Once a child gets a taste of success, he or she will want more.
