Oakwood School (Los Angeles)
School in Los Angeles, California
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oakwood School is a K-12 co-educational independent day school located in the San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles, California. The school was founded in 1951 by a small group of parents who were unhappy with other schools available. Among its founders were Sidney Harmon and Robert Ryan, whose backyard served as the campus for the school's first three years until the North Hollywood campus was finished.[1]
The school consists of two campuses: an elementary school in Studio City,[2] and a secondary school in North Hollywood.[3][4]
