My son has been here since he was two. He will be entering kinder in a few weeks. I absolutely love the school curriculum and extra curricular activities. Since his enrollment we've raved about the school after viewing his academic and social success. We've referred countless friends and family who are now also a part of the Oakwood Family. more

My son has attended Oakwood Academy since he was in kindergarten. He is now in the 4th grade and his national test scores are outstanding. Oakwood is an accelerated school and their hours are extremely accommodating for the working parent (6am - 6pm). My son enjoys taking cooking as an extracurricular activity. It's a small more

This review is way overdo...I enrolled my now 3 and 4 year children to Oakwood Academy Preschool since they were both 2yrs old. After searching and visiting several schools, I found that this is where I wanted my children to attend. It has been the best decision ever. I have seen my children learn so much. They come home singing songs and talking about their teachers. My husband and I feel very comfortable leaving our children there. The staff has excellent communication skills. Ms Paradise goes above and beyond for her students. My daughter has been fortunate to have her for 2 academic school years. Really wish we can bring her along more years. My son loves Ms Jacinia and Ms Khalifa. He even gets upset if we leave without giving them a hug. Ms Ana is always around helping and engaging with the staff, children and parents. Awesome work Ms Ana. The Director Ms Cathie, is on top of every thing that goes on. She is absolutely phenomenal! If your not sure where to enroll your child, try this place, you'll love it!!! more

My oldest has been attending this school since first grade (she previously attend the sister school in Bellflower before that). The class sizes are great. She loves all her teachers and staff.\r My advice to parents, check out all your school options. Oakwood Academy had a good location, good teachers/staff and good hours. If your child wants to learn and have fun and you as a parent are willing to put in the time it takes ,than this is the school for you more

Communication between the office and everyone else could be better but one just learns to ask more questions and follow up in particular situations. I will be sorry to leave Ms Debbye but am hoping that my next child can have the benefit of her classroom. more

Just a fantastic School, Teachers and faculty who are there are truly wonderful and caring people. The curriculum is excellent and the children are very well cared for. My Grandson has been there for 2 years and the things that he has learned would never have been learned in a public school. Thanks to all of the faculty for doing such a marvelous job more

I have had my two grandchildren with Oakwood Schools for a total of 3 years. As the primary caregiver, I have visited and researched other public/private schools in my area and I feel that I have found the best school that best fits my needs for these children.\r \r My youngest one attends the preschool. The teachers are very caring and concerned. My granddaughter always comes home with fun stories about what's she learned in school.\r \r My other grandchild attends the elementary side. My grandson has one of the best 1st grade teachers ever. I feel she has gone above and beyond her duties to make sure my grandson has the tools and resources he needs to excel. He has struggled in certain areas but with her constance assurance and confidence building he is blossoming into a top scholar. He is happy and looking forward to summer and attending a new fall year at Oakwood Academy.\r \r I'm very pleased with the school and the curriculum and the discipline policy at the school. The office staff are always helpful. Ms. Jennifer is always there to listen to any concerns I may have and we collectively come up with solutions. She is the best, she is not just a Principal but has become a confidant. She cares about the school and the students and it shows.\r \r I am impressed with the fact that they serve homemade hot lunches. They do not order out like most school. My grandson tells me Ms. Teresa's cooking is better than mine!\r \r I would recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a small and loving school. Here you are not just a number and that means a lot for me and my grandchildren. more

Luckily, every parent has their own opinion. I have had nothing but FANTASTIC experiences with Oakwood Academy! The staff is caring and knowledgeable, the curriculum surpasses most public schools and my child's test scores can prove that! I do have one issue; lack of parking! Visit the school and you will see that they have alot to offer. more

All four of my children attended Oakwood Academy Preschool and Oakwood Academy Elementary from 2006 to 2014. As an educator myself, I knew what I wanted for my kids. There are positives and negatives at this school, like all schools! more

Editorial review from Citysearch 4/22/2015

I'm a seven year happy parent of the Oakwood family. I actually ended up at Oakwood after a horrific incident with a home daycare. I'm truly proud of the education both of my children received at Oakwood. The educators and administration staff are both pleasant and cooperative. The facility is well maintained and the staff promotes cleanliness with the students. more
