Student recognition is an important component to any quality school program. At Oakview students have the opportunity to receive various awards, recognition or induction into national clubs based on their academic accomplishments, improvements, commitment to school and community and deportment. These awards or inductions are recognition of students who show outstanding academic accomplishments, leadership, behavioral or educational growth, involvement in school activities or demonstrate excellence in service to others in the school, home or church communities. The awards are meant to encourage and reward students who give their best effort, even sometimes in the face of special obstacles.

This award goes to students who have all A’s during the marking period.
HONOR ROLL AWARD
Students who receive all A's and B’s during the marking period will receive the Honor Roll Award

SCIENCE FAIR AWARD
Each year the students of grades 2 to 8 participate in the school's Science Fair. Individual students from these classes prepare presentations, display boards or experiments explaining or supporting a scientific theory, concept or fact. Their works are judged by independent judges, and the student in each participating class, with the highest awarded points is the recipient of the Science Award.
BIBLE BOWL AWARD
The school's annual Bible Bowl competition is an opportunity for students to develop a love for the sacred words of the Bible, and also develop their reading and memory skills. Students of grades 1 - 8 participate in this competition. In the first round, at the class level, students compete in the written Bible Bowl test. At the second level
SPELLING BEE AWARD
Our annual Spelling Bee competition, conducted in each class, is designed to help students improve their spelling, increase their vocabularies, learn concepts, and develop correct English usage which will help them all their lives. The student in each class who is successful at all levels (written, oral and finals) of the competition receives a Spelling Bee award.
