HURRICANE INFORMATION
Ocala Christian
Academy will follow the lead of the Marion County Public Schools in
regards to school closings. If it is announced on radio or
television that all public schools in Marion County are closed, we
will be closed as well. (This will include day care, athletics, and
all other aspects of our operations.) If the public schools are in
operation, then we will be as well.
Should school begin
and the public schools decide to close early, OCA will continue to
operate until all children have been picked up. If the public
schools close early, we encourage you to come pick up your children
as soon as possible.
COLLEGE
TESTING AND SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION
