the facility

The moment you pass the columns of the stately administration building and pull into the landscaped parking area, one can’t help but notice that a distinguishing aspect of Five Oaks Academy is the facility itself. The school is nestled on five acres of woods and pasture near Simpsonville. The existing 100-year old farmhouse has been fully renovated and now houses the school offices, library, dining room, and our student's artwork. It also serves as a place to host regular events such as teas, open houses, parent/teacher meetings, and more. The adjoining carriage house has been converted into an art studio and we have two 4000 square-foot buildings that house a total of four classrooms between them.  These classrooms are state of the art with plenty of room for children, supplies and activities.

The outdoor environment at Five Oaks Academy is a natural extension of our learning in the classroom. Learning begins the moment you enter the campus. Incorporated into the overall design is a fountain, several flower beds, a Labyrinth and a Zen garden.  There is a brand new professionally designed and built fenced-in playground that has a range of play equipment. The playground is located adjacent to a pasture that has been converted to be used as a soccer/play field. There is a half-mile nature trail that winds through the woods and along a creek and half-way through has an outdoor classroom area.  The master plan for the facility includes an amphitheater and a children's garden and all features are slated to be added in the years ahead.
