Integrated
Discipleship
At Ozarks Christian Academy, we believe in providing a holistic education that goes beyond the classroom. Our events calendar is filled with exciting activities and programs that cater to the interests of all our students. From sports competitions to music and art workshops, there's something for everyone. Everything we do at OCA revolves around discipleship and is designed to give our students a firm foundation, equipping them to think and live from a Christian worldview. We teach them how to integrate Christian truth into every area of study and life and not to “compartmentalize” their faith.

ATHLETICS
It is our desire that our athletic community – coaches, players, and parents – participate in such a way that honors God and conveys a positive witness to those around us. We will be modest in victory and gracious in defeat. Winning on the scoreboard should be one of our goals, but losing can many times present beneficial learning opportunities.

CREATIVE ARTS
Students glorify God through their performance and worship. Musical instruction includes reading, writing, and performance using the nationally recognized Kodaly instructional method. Choral music is taught in grades 1 through 12. Students receive weekly instruction by a nationally certified Kodaly instructor.

COMMUNITY SERVICE
Community service is an essential part of discipleship and character formation. Through serving others, students learn to put their faith into action. We encourage students to seek opportunities to serve both within and outside of our school, and we provide resources and support to help them do so. By engaging in community service, our students not only grow in their faith and character, but also make a positive impact on the world around them.
