Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year!

I am grateful for the start of the 2023-2024 school year and the excitement, hope, and maybe even a bit of nerves that a new school year brings. OCSI is excited and ready to partner with your family to equip our students to walk with Jesus and impact the world for Him. Our hope and prayer is that your child’s time at OCSI this school year provides rich opportunities to live out this mission each and every day.

2023-2024 OCSI Secondary Basic Supply List

All students should have this list of basic supplies for the 1st day
Your teacher may have additional supply requirements

  • Notebooks/A4 ringed files
  • Folder for loose papers
  • Pens, pencils
  • Colored Pencils
  • Highlighters
  • Headphones
  • Index Cards
  • Sleeve/case for school chromebook
  • PE Uniform/Water Bottle (for PE class)

OCSI middle students are required to read TWO books over the summer in order to maintain and build their reading skills. Research shows that consistent reading over the school break is necessary for students to stay academically on target with their peers. Reading correlates with high vocabulary, good writing, knowledge of the world, and empathy, among other things. We hope students will enjoy reading many more than the minimum requirement and will share their finds with
us when they return to school in the fall!

Our Program

Our classes are taught in English, and we use an American-style program that addresses the whole person, is Biblically based, recognizes all truth is God’s truth, emphasizes sharing the Gospel and discipleship, and encourages Biblical thinking and living.

Our middle school program includes Bible, core academics, exploratories (art, digital tools, Japanese language, music, woodshop), and activities.
