College Prep
Live Oak students have been accepted into the top UC’s, as well as other high-ranked colleges and universities.
Colleges and universities have come to recognize that homeschoolers are some of the best educated; they have a good academic track record for achieving high scores on standardized tests, plus they have had the time to passionately pursue their extra-curricular interests. We encourage our families with middle and high school students to attend our college discussions where LOA families can learn about the college process and how to prepare their students throughout the high school years.
