Knight's Honor

A Commitment to Character at Oakbrook Preparatory School

At Oakbrook Preparatory School, we believe that true education goes beyond academics. Our Knight's Honor Code serves as a foundation for building character, integrity, and a strong moral compass in every student, from K3 to 12th grade. It represents our commitment to respect, honor, self-control, and accountability, grounded in biblical principles.

This code defines our expectations for all students and is woven into every aspect of life at Oakbrook. By pledging to uphold the Knight's Honor Code, students embrace a life of integrity—respecting authority, honoring others, practicing self-control, conducting themselves with orderliness, and speaking with kindness and truth. The Knight's Honor Code is more than just a set of rules; it guides our community in fostering a culture where each student can grow into a thoughtful, ethical, and compassionate leader, prepared for life beyond our campus.
