Summer Academies


A Summer Academy is a two-week academic readiness program for students at transition levels in their schooling that can be operated through your organization in collaboration with local educators.  Qualified instructors teach math and reading aligned with common learning standards in order to prepare students to enter the school year.


After School Programs


We help organizations offer quality tutoring programs based on best practices to support local students both academically and with life challenges.  Volunteer training, consistent scheduling, and making connections between tutoring and the classroom are just some of the proven methods incorporated into our program.


Teacher Support


We Love Teachers is a plan your organization can implement to provide practical, loving support to school teachers in your community.  Providing notes of encouragement, personal care packages and donating towards classroom needs are just some of the ways your organization can help ensure teachers know they aren’t alone.


4 Reasons We Partner With Local Churches


1.  They Can Target the Right Audience.  Take advantage of the recruiting power of local churches to reach and invite people who do not have access to adequate education and need help.

2.  They are a Volunteer Army.  Take advantage of the volunteer capacity of the church, which is unmatched by almost any other type of organization.

4.  They are motivated by public good.  Take advantage of their motivation to serve the common good.

How much does it cost?


We do ask for donations.  Donating to Oaks Learning is a great way to help individuals who need education support right now, but don't have access any other way.  It's also a great way to support local churches and organizations who are perfectly positioned to bring change to their community, but lack resources.  Here's a few more benefits to donating to Seed to Oaks.

What Churches and Education 

Professionals are Saying


“As a teacher I have always looked for a way I could use my unique gifts within my church community. Oaks Learning gives me the opportunity to not only help prepare kids in our community for school but also show the love of Jesus to these kids and families as well! My church hosts a Summer Academy and it is a perfect opportunity to extend the gospel into the community your church serves.” 


- Kim Baker (Teacher)

“Our Summer Academy is a core part of our strategy to show love to the children and families in our church and neighborhood by helping kids get ready for a successful school year. We could not do this without such a strong and knowledgeable partner in Seed to Oaks. And as an added bonus, Summer Academy has helped strengthen our relationship with the local school -- they love how we are helping their students prepare.”


- Bobby Gilles ( Pastor )
