Red Oaks

Who we are

A Red Oaks education is transformative – both in the lives of our students and the communities they touch. Serving P3 through Grade 8, Red Oaks offers a thoughtfully designed academic journey from Montessori in the early years to the International Baccalaureate in middle school. At each stage, students are challenged to grow their potential through rigorous academics, intentional development of executive function skills, and learning experiences that foster curiosity, connection, initiative, and innovation. To expand student horizons, we provide rich opportunities to explore the arts and athletics, and to engage with the wider community through cultural events and service.

Our Students

are driven by discovery, independent thought, and a deep love of learning.  While no two Red Oaks students are alike, they each contribute to a community that is supportive, dynamic, and impactful.

Our Families

originating from six continents with many individuals speaking multiple languages – form a vibrant, warm, and diverse community. They are vital partners in all that we do.

Our Teachers

are highly qualified, deeply caring, and committed to helping each student grow. They inspire students to push through obstacles, to learn from past experience, to help others, and to strive toward their fullest potential.

Our Graduates

are compassionate leaders, informed by self-awareness, inspired by challenge, and committed to making a difference both locally and globally.

Student Voices

Leo - Alumni, '26

“Since the beginning, Red Oaks has given me a lot of chances to speak in front of my peers and teachers. Starting in first grade, we lead parent-teacher conferences, which has helped me reflect on who I am and how I've grown. I am most proud of being part of the school musicals in Middle School. Performing in plays has taught me responsibility and time management, and really increased my self-confidence."

Violet - First Grader

“I like that we don't just read from books. We get to do fun projects, like dressing up as people from history, making our own books, or creating presentations about things we're learning. It makes learning more fun and helps me remember it.”

Miles - Fifth Grader

“My classes and activities like Model UN teach me how to research and figure out what questions I should be asking. I also like that we learn about stuff happening around the world, not just what's going on in the U.S.”
