Oak Hill Academy hosted their annual Littletown Day with a colonial flair, Wednesday, March 13, 2019. This is the culminating activity for Lower School students as they finished up their unit on the West Ward expansion of the United States. From the pilgrim’s journey across the Atlantic Ocean, to the Boston Tea Party, the 13 colonies, America’s symbols, wagon trains and Fulton’s Steamboat, to the various Native American tribes, students learned all about the journey and discovery of our beautiful country. Honored guest was Committeewoman Pat Snell who was pleased to see all our students working well together as they ran their grade’s businesses.

Oak Hill Academy and our small town environment gives students the opportunity to have fun while learning!!!
