Student Scholarships
More than fifty percent of our students receive financial aid. It may be given to a student from a family with four or five children, to a student whose father is out of work, or to a student showing amazing potential whose family just can't manage to pay all the tuition and fees. It is given to individuals based on financial need. Many of our students would be unable to attend with scholarship funds.
Educational Center Renovation
We are in the midst of renovating the R.E. Callicott Education Center. So far we have received $400,000 towards our $1.5 million dollar goal. We are replacing the carpeting and flooring, and we have already changed some of the furniture. We are in the process of repainting the interior walls and are purchasing new lighting and fixtures. We also plan to update existing technology and educational resources.
Impact 150
With 150 contributors each giving $100 per month for ten months, the total contribution would be $150,000. This amount would go for discretionary and unexpected needs throughout the 2024-2025 school year. It's an effective way to ensure the school has the flexibility to address various challenges and opportunities as they arise and provide the best environment for OAA students. Make an impact today!

Renovation Update
Dec. 19 - Jan. 5, 2025
During Christmas break, our third-floor hallway in the R.E. Callicott Educational Center underwent a transformation. The light blue walls and blue carpet have been replaced with a fresh new color scheme. Complete with new carpeting and trim, the space is looking refreshed and ready for the new year.
Volleyball Portraits
January 7, 2025
One of the varsity sports during OAA's first semester was girls' volleyball. We're incredibly proud of how this group of young women supported and encouraged each other both on and off the court. These students demonstrated outstanding teamwork and sportsmanship.
Class Flag Reveal
December 18, 2024
Just before Christmas break, students gathered to reveal their class flags. Each class incorporated a Bible verse of special significance into their unique flag design. The flags will now hang in the auditorium as lasting reminders of the spiritual focus that unites them as a class.

OAA's senior class celebrated Christmas with a party on Sunday with a white elephant gift exchange. Students enjoyed rice krispy bars, peanut butter cookies, and Mrs. Waggoner's delicious homemade soup.
Christmas Concert
December 7, 2024
It was almost as if heaven's gates were left ajar and the angels' chorus could be heard in the Gentry SDA Church on Saturday night. OAA's music students and community members joined together to create an unforgettable concert.
Graduate Testimonials
HannahClass of 2024"Ozark didn't just equip me with a community and different strengths... I was able to find my purpose. I found a passion and a love for something God has called us all to: to love His people, share His word, and trust His promises in everything that I do."
Hannah Class of 2024One of the things I will miss "is definetly my friends. I have grown close to them to the point where I can call them my sisters. So going from the point of seeing them everyday to only being able to text or Facetime them will be a really hard adjustment for me."
Ysabella Class of 2024"Ozark wasn't just about the campus, the buildings, or the activities, although they played a significant role in my experience—it was the relationships and friendships I made along the way... Spending time with those friends... gave me memories I will forever cherish. "
