Oakdale Christian Academy is a Christ-centered boarding and day school for students in grades 7 through 12, situated on a 12-acre campus eight miles from Jackson, Kentucky. The institution enrolls about 60 students and offers a traditional college-preparatory program with a college acceptance rate reported at over 90%. Its student body includes learners from 20 states and eight countries, with international students making up about 15% and roughly 40% identifying as non-white. Oakdale maintains a low student-to-staff ratio and assigns two full-time dorm deans to each 20-student dorm unit to support its residential program. It holds accreditation from the Association of Christian Schools International and Advanc-ED (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools), is affiliated with the Free Methodist Church-USA, and was the first U.S. school to receive boarding accreditation from ACSI. Domestic tuition, room and board are listed at $22,175 per year, and about 80% of students receive financial aid, with two-thirds of families benefiting from need-based assistance and private lending options available to help cover costs.
