Students experience a challenging curriculum within a diverse community, dedicated to nurturing the spirit, the scholar, the artist and the athlete in each person. To fulfill this mission, Oakwood Friends offers each student · an academically challenging program in preparation for college · a shared search for truth through Friends Meeting for Worship and the unique Quaker process of decision making · an opportunity for growth in a community of cultural and ethnic diversity and close, supportive friendships · an awareness of physical well-being through sports, physical education and instruction in health · an opportunity for participation in the arts · an experience of off-campus community service to strengthen effectiveness, responsibility and participation in the wider world. Page 4 The Academic Program Our course offerings are designed to teach students to think critically, to analyze and evaluate carefully, and to be open to ideas. Literature, scientific experiments and historical research are all pursued with an intent to discover relationships, absorb new knowledge, and discard unfounded notions — in other words, to search for truth.
