Oak Lane Day School is an independent, co-ed elementary school that honors each child's unique individuality while fostering intellectual, creative, academic and personal growth within a diverse community of active, engaged learners.

Conceived as a place where all students would be welcome regardless of race, religion or nationality, Oak Lane was founded on the principles of progressive education. The ideal of individualized education to serve a diverse and inclusive student population has shaped Oak Lane to this day. Our teaching heritage includes a strong emphasis on the arts and music.

Oak Lane is nestled on a 30-acre country campus in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania, at the intersection of Stenton Avenue and Butler Pike in Whitpain Township, and is in close proximity to Chestnut Hill and Mount Airy. The School's pastoral environment is warm, serene and inviting to children, and rapidly becomes a second home for our students.

Martin Luther King Jr Day Community Service Projects

Take a tour through our day on January 21, first to make peanut & butter sandwiches (1,370 of them!) at Oak Lane for the Stenton Family Manor, then to Sunrise Assisted Living in Lafayette Hill where our orchestra and chorus members delighted the crowd. The last stop was to the Evergreen Adult Day Center in Chestnut Hill. Students and family members played games and made crafts together with the seniors.

Winterlude 2007: Bread and More Bread!

Watch as a pile of bricks was transformed into an oven, when a sourdough starter that has traveled the world for 180 years arrived here to make our bread rise, and when a master builder and baker, Dorise Kowalewski, brought her knowledge and experience to teach us all, big and small, how to make the most delicious bread ever.
