Stay Tuned

Just a quick note to say thanks for reading the blog. This is new to me, and I realize that the concept of a blog is not new, maybe I a little behind the times. I am committed to keeping this alive during the coming months of construction. Watch for updates on the project soon.

I do want to note just a quick point about the fall schedule. Our construction team is eager to move on the new space, and we are getting everything ready for that to happen. Continue to watch for a ground breaking event, probably the first week of June.

Our best plan for the fall for several reasons is to open the school year, for Pre-K through 12th grade, in our current location, at Liberty Christian Center, 5612 L Street. We expect that the construction of the new space will not be finished until a little while after school starts. Mr. Thompson has built the school calendar so that we can take a fall break and do our move. Our current expectation is that the move will take place in October. As construction moves forward, we will know more about that schedule.

Please know that we are doing all we can to make this an excellent facility. The building will have about 36,000 square feet of space, which is equal or slightly more than we have now. That includes a cafeteria and assembly room and all the classrooms you expect at OCA, including Math, Bible, History, Art, Family consumer science, Spanish, Music, 2 English and 2 Science rooms, and a Library.

We will be asking for volunteer labor to help on this project. The office will be circulating information about volunteer projects beginning very soon.

More to come. Keep praying!
