Oakview Preparatory School

Oakview Preparatory School advocates simplicity, modesty, and appropriateness in dress for staff and students at all school and church occasions.

Uniforms are required for classes at all times. Gym attire and sneakers are required for Physical Education classes. “Non-scuff” shoes are required. (No sneakers or shoes with wheels; no Crocs or slides). “No education can be complete that does not teach the right principles regarding dress. Without such teaching, the work of education is often retarded and perverted. Love of dress and devotion to fashion, are among the teacher’s most formidable rivals and most effective hindrance.” Education p. 246.
