Student Life
Life at OCI
Oakwood students are actively involved beyond the walls of the classroom and in the school community. Our building is a very busy one with co-curricular activities taking place from the very morning through to the evening hours.
Students have extensive opportunities to participate in a full range of clubs, activities, leadership activities and athletic events. The strengths of our extra-curricular programs are credited to the excellence and commitment of staff, as well as the energy and spirit of our students.
Students play a significant role in school leadership. Student Council (CAPUT) has a long standing tradition of active student leadership in planning and organizing spirit events, activities, community service projects, peer mentorship and fundraising. Students also have the opportunity to provide leadership through groups such as the OCI Ambassadors, Athletic Council, Change the Game, Afro-Can Club and The Alliance.
Students are proud of the key role they play in providing their voice and perspective to the school and broader community. OCI is a caring, compassionate and inclusive school. Our home is shared with our Developmental Education students and together, we celebrate and embrace our learning each and every day.
