The contact between [student and teacher] must be unusually close, closer than in most private schools…” Frank Gaebelein General: Each teacher at Oaks Christian School will incorporate into their teaching a worldview that is distinctly Christian (see OCS – A Christian Worldview), and will also demonstrate excellent teaching, learning, thinking and expression.
