Workers for the Harvest

Oklahoma Academy

OA is a private Christian boarding high school located in Harrah, Oklahoma. It is affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church but is run independently. It provides a comprehensive educational program that integrates spiritual, academic, and physical development.

​

The motto of Oklahoma Academy is ‘workers for the harvest’ which is derived from Matthew 9: 38 “Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest.” KJV. Thus it is the goal of Oklahoma Academy to help each student maximize their potential as a worker for God in preparing the world for His soon return.
