Okeechobee Adventist Christian School (OACS-O) is a small, mission-driven, grades 1–8 school serving the Okeechobee community for more than 80 years, offering quality Christian education with a strong emphasis on nurturing students academically, spiritually, and socially. With an intimate multi-grade classroom setting and exceptionally low student-teacher ratios, OACS provides personalized learning where every child is known and supported. Located just north of Lake Okeechobee — Florida’s largest freshwater lake — the area offers peaceful small-town living, abundant outdoor recreation, and a close-knit community known for its warm, family-oriented atmosphere. Residents enjoy affordable living, wide-open spaces, boating, fishing, and access to scenic natural areas, making Okeechobee an appealing choice for educators seeking a quieter lifestyle with meaningful community impact. OACS is ideal for educators who value holistic Christian education, individualized instruction, and the opportunity to make a lasting difference in a tight-knit school community.

OACS-O has an opening for a dedicated, caring, dynamic, and Christ-filled teaching principal for the upcoming school year, beginning July 1, 2026. The ideal candidate will possess exceptional leadership skills, a collaborative spirit, and a passion for children and educational excellence.
