Oakhill Day School

Originally known as Little Folks, Oakhill Day School was founded in 1947 as an Early Childhood Kindergarten Program by Wanda Lee Kalsu, Northland mother, and educator. In 1972, “Little Folks” became Oakhill Day School and settled in its current location at 7019 North Cherry Street in 1989.

Oakhill’s innovative and integrated curriculum challenges students to discover their gifts and provides numerous opportunities for personal growth and development. The students are invigorated by the hands-on approach to learning and are captivated by the relevance and engagement of the material. With our small class sizes, our dedicated teachers individualize, give personal attention, tailor the curriculum, involve all learning styles, and make use of small group teaching methods to ensure that all students are able to build upon their gifts and grow in all areas; nurturing students to perform at their best!

Oakhill Day School is fully accredited by the Independent School Association of the Central States, the North Central Association. In addition, Oakhill holds membership in the National Business Officers Association, the Association of Middle-Level Education, the National Association of Independent Schools, and the Northland and Gladstone Chambers of Commerce.
