We work around students' schedules
Students can enroll any weekday of the year; there is no need to wait for classes to start or the semester to begin. Once enrolled, students, parents, and teachers partner to create a class schedule that respects and meets the needs of students.
Diverse class formats for every learner
In addition to independent study courses, students have the option and are encouraged to participate in small group and online instruction. Math, English, and Sciences are taught in small groups, free from distractions. These diverse class formats incorporate collaborative projects that encourage critical thinking and social interaction while maintaining a safe environment.
We have the support students need
Students work independently at a pace tailored to their ability and learning level, as teachers provide individualized attention and guidance. The low student-teacher ratio allows each student to meet one-on-one with their teacher to discuss homework, course packets, and testing. Student Advisors, Counselors, and FREE Tutors provide additional support as needed to help each and every student graduate and achieve their dreams.
Help students to be college-ready
Post-secondary and career counseling is provided to every student. Juniors and seniors attend FREE college tours throughout the year and learn what to consider when selecting a school including size, major and minor programs, clubs, location, and campus life. Students take part in workshops that expose them to application processes like obtaining references and applying for financial aid.
Community Service
OFL partners with local community nonprofits like zoos, animal shelters, senior citizen homes, and conservation organizations. Students build character with activities that positively impact their community, including fundraising, volunteering, donating, and creating or coordinating service programs.
Groups and Events
OFL students have the opportunity to join countless groups, events, and activities. From cheerleading and school talent shows, OFL has no shortage of good times and school spirit! Every student also has the opportunity to attend Grad Night Senior Signing Day (a celebration where students sign college acceptance letters), and participate in a one-of-a-kind graduation ceremony.
Sports
Every 9-12th grade student is eligible to play on OFL's many sports teams including softball, basketball, soccer, volleyball, bowling, and passing league football. Team members experience the value of healthy competition and physical fitness.
Field Trips & Camps
FUN and FREE multiple day camps at Rocky Mountain Pathways Ranch and Blackbird Farm are offered to EVERY student. Horseback riding, farming, bread and cheese making, and zip-lining are just a few of the activities these trips include. In addition to camps, students are encouraged to explore new lands such as Washington DC, New Orleans, Cuba, China, and Italy.
