Located in the foothills of the beautiful Ozark Mountains of Northwest Arkansas, Ozark Adventist Academy is a boarding high school offering a friendly, family type atmosphere. It is owned and operated by the Arkansas-Louisiana Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.
Each week OAA puts out a schedule called This Week at OAA. It gives a detailed daily view of exactly what is happening on campus and when it is happening. The previous This Week at OAA is available HERE.
May 20 - 26
This Week at OAA tells what is happening each week. Our online calender shows what is happening throughout the entire year. It is constantly being updated. From fall home leave, to leadership camp, to Sunday school, it's all on the calendar.

We have a $250,000 donor challenge! Every dollar given for Ozark's Administration Building renovation project until October 15, 2024, will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $250,000! This will give OAA a combined total of $500,000 towards our $1.5M Administration Building renovation!
The work has already started. Paint samples are on the wall, carpet squares are in the hallway, and the drop ceiling has already been removed from the lobby's ceiling. The interior of the administration building is being updated to make a space more conducive to learning, and we can't wait to see its final transformation. Donations for the renovation project may be made via the link below.

Photo GalleriesOzark Adventist Academy has started a process to craft and execute a Continuous School Improvement -CSI Plan. To do this, we put together a Continuous School Improvement -CSI Team composed of 16 representatives from school staff, teachers, parents, and community members. The hard work and commitment of this team has produced a CSI Plan with 5 main goals and accompanying action steps that came from the priorities evidenced from the data used to assess our school needs. The school CSI Team will continue to meet once a month to go over the progress that is being made in each one of the goals and action steps. Corrective actions will be taken and revisions will be made to the plan as tasks are completed and progress is made toward achieving each goal. All are invited to join us in our efforts to move OAA forward.
