The Oxbow School is a private single semester arts school for high school sophomores, juniors, seniors, and gap year students located in Napa, California, sitting near an oxbow of the Napa River. High school and gap year students can choose to attend in either the fall or spring semester with visual arts and academic focus. Oxbow also offers a 6-week Summer Art Institute for the same grade levels.
The school trains students in painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography and digital media while still satisfying high school graduation requirements and preparing them for college admittance. The school was founded in 1997 and opened in 1999.
Academics
Students are required to take one Science and Humanities class each as part of the morning routine. Some students also hire foreign language and math teachers to prevent their skills from slipping during the semester away. Physical Education is also a required course. In PE, students' choices include hiking, biking, gardening, running, and soccer. The school is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and Cognia. [1]
