Great school. I received an amazing education at OAB. The staff was terrific, they care about their students. As I know this from experience, since I decided I didn't want to study and when my finally year came around I was told I would not graduate because I did not have enough credits, the teachers, especially Mrs Wanda, she helped me buckle down and get the credits I needed. If I had it to do all over again, I would. And get it right the first time. But the staff is amazing and doing what God has set before them. Amazing school, and great spiritual environment. I would recommend this school hands down.!!!
