Oak View Elementary is centrally located in Fairfax County , allowing its students to benefit from the many resources located within a short distance from the school. One of the most remarkable things about the school is the large number of adults who volunteer to work with students both during and after school hours in order to help them achieve their academic potential. Students from Robinson Secondary School , located across the street, also serve as tutors and mentors during the year. Oak View is a school community in which administration, faculty, and parents collaborate to create a safe learning environment with high expectations for the intellectual, physical, emotional, and social development of its students. Within the curriculum, there is an emphasis on language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies, as well as an appreciation of the fine arts.
Students work cooperatively with peers and volunteers to develop critical thinking skills.
Human and material resources are committed to strengthening students' use and understanding of technology throughout the curriculum. Through experiences that allow for inquiry, exploration, and discovery, Oak View provides students with a foundation for becoming lifelong learners and responsible citizens in our global community. A cooperative spirit, the result of a partnership between parents and school staff, ensures that realistic expectations are maintained and human resources are fully utilized. Keeping our sight on this academic mission helps students become the best they can be. In addition to Robinson Middle School, our rising 7th graders attend Lanier Middle School and Frost Middle School.
