Oak Valley Center's goal is to help students develop the ability to withstand life's greatest challenges. Oak Valley Center is a structured therapeutic day school for students in Grades 3-12.  Our program is designed to meet the developmental, academic and social needs of children and adolescents with learning or emotional problems that interfere with their abilities to concentrate and to learn. At Oak Valley Center, the primary focus is academic achievement and personal growth.  Our program also works to strengthen the student's self-concept and interpersonal relations.  Our goal is to help each student become a more confident, successful learner upon returning to a less restrictive educational setting. Oak Valley Center staff work with local school professionals to develop an effective educational plan.  Each student benefits from a program personalized to meet his or her individual needs.
