Oakwood School is a primary and secondary educational institution founded in 1951 by parents who sought an program that weaves the arts, sciences, and humanities and challenges students across creative, intellectual, and physical realms. The founders aimed to cultivate independent thought, intellectual integrity, empathy for others, and preparation for active participation in a democratic society. The school emphasizes a learning environment that supports individual growth within a collaborative community, regards intellectual attainment highly, and encourages students to take on increasing autonomy and responsibility toward others, the environment, and the wider world.

Based in North Hollywood, California, Oakwood operates as a mid-sized school with a focus on meaningful present experiences to prepare students for the future, and on a reciprocal relationship between teachers and learners that respects students' feelings and thoughts. In 2017, the school announced the appointment of Daniel P. Quesnel as head of school, reflecting ongoing leadership development alongside its long-standing educational aims.
