Our Story

148 YEARS
OF SHAPING
FUTURES

Oak Hill Academy sits on 150 acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia — a place where the rhythm of seasons shapes the rhythm of learning. Since 1878, we've believed that education is about more than grades, and athletics is about more than wins.

Our basketball program has produced over 30 NBA players — more than any other high school in America. But our true legacy lives in the thousands of graduates who left here as complete individuals: disciplined, curious, confident, and ready for the world.
