Ouachita Christian School has been a vital part of Northeast Louisiana for 50 years. Our students have been successful in many roles in their homes, church, community, and careers. Our mission of “Preparing Youth for Time and Eternity" is evident in our students’ accomplishments.
Our success as a school would not be possible without the support from our current families and alumni. At our 50th Anniversary Celebration in October of 2024, OCS leadership unveiled a forward-looking strategic plan that will set the school on a path to build upon its strong foundation. The plan’s core focus includes funding and support for several capital improvement projects, further enhancing facilities to accommodate the school’s growing programs and enrich the student experience. Additionally, the school will launch initiatives to bolster teacher and coach retention funds, ensuring that OCS continues to attract and retain passionate, high-quality educators who are dedicated to student growth and success.
“This milestone isn’t just a celebration of the past 50 years; it’s a launchpad for what’s to come,” said Sherri Slade, Head of School at Ouachita Christian School. “We are deeply grateful for the unwavering support of our OCS family and the community. This strategic vision will allow us to serve our students with excellence, preparing them to impact the world for Christ.
”With the launch of this strategic plan, OCS invites you to join in this new chapter, partnering in efforts to invest in the school's facilities, programs, and exceptional educators.
