Who We Are

A Small School with a Big Heart

Welcome to Five Oaks

The Five Oaks Adventist Christian School is operated in harmony with the guidance and direction of the Office of Education, North American Division of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

We are also accredited by the North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists and the National Council for Private School Accreditation.

Mission Statement

Partnering with the home and church to inspire in our students a love for Christ and His mission.

Our Philosophy

The core beliefs that guide our educational approach and shape the whole student.

🌱

The Whole Person

We recognize each individual as a person of supreme worth. Education is not limited to the intellect; it continues throughout life with the home, school, church, and community.

📖

The Bible as Truth

We hold the Bible to be the infallible frame of reference by which truth is measured. Its central message depicts the creation, the fall, and restoration through Jesus Christ.

✝️

Jesus is the Center

We view Jesus, His life, and His death on the cross, as the center of our hopes for the present and the future. He provides the perfect model for our lives.

🤝

Unselfish Service

Unselfish service is an integral part of Christian development. With increasing education comes a growing responsibility to give back and serve others.

🎨

Appreciation of Beauty

We believe in developing our appreciation for beauty in God’s creation and human expression. We encourage students to express God’s beauty creatively.

💪

Temple of God

We view the body as the temple of God and realize the close connection between spiritual and physical health. Healthful living increases our capacity to know God.

🙏

Respect & Reverence

We believe that developing a sense of respect for parents and others in responsible positions will foster respect and reverence for God.
