History
Lake Oconee Academy opened in 2007, operating within Lakeside Baptist Church, until the expansion of the new and current location on Carey Station Road in Greensboro, Georgia. In 2011, the new location was announced and a grade level was added to the growing list. The school continually added a grade until the graduating class of 2018 became the very first graduating class from Lake Oconee Academy. Since the expansion, the school has been advocating for further growth, with additions including a new high school and new gymnasium. Dr. Otho Tucker has been the oldest CEO of the school since its opening.
In 2014, LOA was awarded National Blue Ribbon School status.
