Primary Education Program Oaks Christian School (OCS) is an independent, non-denominational, Christian college-preparatory school serving students in 4th through 12th grade. The school was founded in 1997 and opened in 2000 with 196 students sharing one campus. Currently, OCS enrolls over 1,600 students annually. A middle school campus adjacent to the original campus was added in 2009. Academy V or fifth grade was added in the fall of 2014 and the fall of 2023 marked the launch of the inaugural fourth grade class to kickstart the school's elementary school expansion. For the fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2024 the school enrollment was 1,635. The school's three pillars are Academic Excellence, Artistic Expression and Athletic Distinction. These distinctives are evidenced through strong academics, performing and visual arts (theatre, choir, band, orchestra, dance, 2D and 3D art, photography, graphic design and yearbook) as well as competitive athletic team participation. The 23-24 school year marked growth in many different areas of the school: the start of the elementary school with the launch of the first fourth grade level with 35 students, new elementary playground, the launching and planning of new institutes namely Health and Sciences and the Bible Institutes, exciting new resources like the anatomize table and physical therapy area, and new art classes to highlight a few. The class of 2024 completed their secondary school experience with the graduates accepted to 270 different colleges, attending 107 colleges in 28 states and two countries, receiving $8 million in scholarships. The graduating class also included 39 students who signed athletic letters of intent, 22 entering STEM fields, 17 pursuing arts careers, 22 National Honor Society Members, and three National Merit Finalists. In arts, the new animation class launched in the fall of 2023 took off, providing a creative lead start and future-focused opportunity for students who are interested in this fast-growing industry. As part of the Institute of Arts and Innovation, the class focuses on animation theory and application, using industry standard platforms such as Adobe and other digital formats. The film program developed the program's third feature-length film, "Right Here, Right Now" which was debuted at OCS Annual Film Festival in May. Highlights for high school athletics for the school year 23-24 includes the Girls Volleyball winning the 2024 CIF-SS Division II Girls Beach Volleyball Championship, the first time in program history and the 56th CIF title in school history, and the Boys' Lacrosse team winning the program's first ever CIF title.

Student Programs and Activities The school's added student programs and activities include performing arts events as well as visual arts displays, athletic competitions, spiritual life/mission trip opportunities, college counseling trips, test preparation, Photography class location trips and numerous club, social and extra-curricular activities. OCS students have amazing opportunities to participate in school service and academic trips both domestic and internationally. Each year approximately 200 students join these trips to help teach English, build houses or other structures, visit orphanages and share the gospel. In the past, middle school students have traveled to Costa Rica, China and Mexico while high school students have traveled to China, Guatemala, Africa, Haiti, Mexico, Romania and elsewhere. The Residential Life Program has significantly grown in past few years and has hosted over 100 students from Korea, China, Macau, Taiwan, Uganda, Norway, and Colombia. The OCS residential boarding facility opened on August 2020 with 40 students making history as the very first residents of the state-of-the-art dorm. The program hosts students from 17 countries, including from Europe, Asia and South America.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
