Admissions Resources

Learning Support: Some students may need assistance and/or modifications to fully participate in the school’s programs and services. Please note that private school students do not have an individual right to receive some or all of the special education services that they might otherwise receive in a public school setting.

Financial Assistance: We believe all students should have access to an exceptional education. To support families in managing tuition, we offer need-based financial assistance for grades K–12.

Summer and Auxiliary Programs: Oak Hall offers Extended Day, Enrichment, Community Sports, and Summer Programs. These opportunities provide engaging, enriching experiences for students and the Gainesville community beyond the classroom.
