OAKS ACADEMY
OAKS ACADEMY is a Title I public charter school that is part of the MEADOWLAND CHARTER DISTRICT school district, located in BOERNE, TX with about 85 students offering grade levels from 1st Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 10 teachers, OAKS ACADEMY has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
The OAKS ACADEMY, located at 121 Old San Antonio Rd in Boerne, Texas, is an extension of the educational mission of Mount Lyon Christian School (MLCS). The school is characterized by a commitment to a classical Christian education, focusing on academic rigor, character development, and the integration of faith into the learning process. By emphasizing a traditional curriculum, the school aims to cultivate critical thinking skills and a strong moral foundation in its students, preparing them for future academic pursuits and personal growth within a supportive, community-oriented environment.
As an affiliate of the MLCS network, The OAKS ACADEMY leverages the resources and pedagogical philosophy of its parent organization to provide a structured and intentional classroom experience. The school serves families in the Boerne area who are seeking an alternative to conventional educational models, prioritizing small class sizes and personalized instruction. Through its focus on classical studies—often involving the study of the liberal arts, history, and theology—The OAKS ACADEMY strives to foster a lifelong love of learning while upholding values consistent with its Christian mission.
