Being a great student and a great athlete is a difficult task, an admirable goal, and a worthy accomplishment.
PRIORITIES
The OCA Athletic Department acknowledges the following order of priorities in our school:
01
GOD
First and foremost, our relationship with God should be the of everything we do. Our faith should inform our decisions and actions, and we should strive to live a life that honors Him.
02
FAMILY
Family is the next priority as they are the ones who support us through all of life's ups and downs. By prioritizing family, we can create a strong support system that helps us navigate life's challenges and achieve goals.
03
ACADEMICS
Academics come third as education is essential for personal growth and success. By prioritizing academics, we not only honor God but also prepare ourselves for a successful future.
04
ATHLETICS
Athletics equips us to know, love, and practice that which is true, good, and beautiful and challenges us to strive for excellence as we live purpose full lives in the service of God. It reminds us of our need for community in order to help us push through adversity. It requires hard work, patience, selflessness and self control.
