Oak Hill Academy in Wilson, Virginia, is in the middle of nowhere, but it’s somewhere that struggling teens can find themselves. Whether they have experienced setbacks with grades and relationships or caved to life’s distractions, the academy helps them get back on tract and kickstart a better future.

And while Oak Hill’s sports program has produced NBA Hall of Famers, its academics have kindled an interest in learning. Along the way, its Christian foundation has also strengthened character and changed behaviors — all to enable second chances.

Of course, such success relies on every bit of time and energy that Oak Hill’s teachers and leadership can muster.
