Tuition
Adventist education is an investment and we believe that OAKS provides the greatest value per dollar of any school in the area. OAKS is committed to delivering Christ-centered academic excellence at a tuition rate that remains competitive with other schools in the Collegedale area.
While our most favorable tuition rate is available to families who are members of the Ooltewah Seventh-day Adventist Church, we also offer a variety of discounts to make Adventist education accessible and affordable for many families.

Families can also enroll in the Partnering for Eternity (PFE) Program to earn additional tuition assistance. The goal of the program is for students and mentors to create intergenerational relationships and experience the blessing of service.
In the process, students receive scholarship for their tuition and mentors receive the gift of friendship and ability to bestow their knowledge and skills on to a younger generation, hopefully making an impact for years to come.
