Oakcrest recognizes the vocation of women as trustees of humanity* and provides a culture of freedom and responsibility in which young women thrive. The joy that comes from knowing she is a child of God impels our graduate to positively impact family and society through:

  • An understanding of faith and a commitment to personal friendship with God
  • Academic excellence that drives her to pursue lifelong learning
  • The ability to recognize and articulate truth, and the courage to stand by it
  • Self-knowledge that informs her growth in virtue
  • A love for beauty in the world, and a sense of responsibility to sustain and create it
  • Leadership and a spirit of collaboration that inspire her to serve
 * Saint John Paul II, Apostolic Letter, On the Dignity and Vocation of Women, n. 30

This personal, dynamic, integral education shapes a person who can go on to recognize the beauty and depth of each person because she has first been taught to discover this about herself. When you meet a young woman like this, you realize that she will be a tremendous gift to her university community because she has received this transformative educational experience and is poised to share its benefits with others. 

Congrats, Class of 2023!
