At OCA, our mission is to educate the whole child--exposing them to a diverse array of academic and extracurricular opportunities including music and arts classes, AP classes, leadership opportunities. Within our small school community, students and staff form strong relationships with students. Our school partners with the Henry Street Settlement to provide additional college preparation, arts programming, social-emotional support, and resources and referrals for the entire family.
