New Trustee: Welcome Frank Ball, Class of 2011

 

We are delighted to welcome Frank Ball as a new trustee at Oxford Academy. As a proud alumnus of Oxford Academy, Frank’s journey from our campus to becoming an innovative architect exemplifies the values of creativity, dedication, and community that we cherish.

Frank’s impressive academic background includes graduating from the Pratt Institute School of Architecture in 2017, where he demonstrated leadership as a Student Representative and President of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity. His professional career as an Architectural Designer at Edelman Sultan Knox Woods Architects LLP in New York City showcases his technical expertise and commitment to impactful design.

Beyond his professional achievements, Frank’s hands-on experience with fabrication—ranging from 3D printing to woodworking—reflects his innovative spirit and his dedication to pushing the boundaries of architecture and design. His ongoing engagement with learning through projects like the NCARB Architectural Experience Program and beta testing for educational applications underscores his passion for education and continuous growth.

Frank’s journey from Oxford Academy to a leader in architecture and design makes him a truly inspiring addition to our board of trustees. His unique perspective, commitment to learning, and drive to foster community will undoubtedly enrich the Oxford Academy community as we continue to nurture the next generation of thinkers, creators, and leaders.

 

Exciting Horizons Ahead

 

The Oxford Academy community looks forward to the 2025-26 academic year with tremendous excitement. New Signature Programs include: STEAM, Industrial Arts, and the upcoming Music program representing the Academy’s continued commitment to hands-on, experiential learning that engages every type of learner.

Students will have expanded opportunities in robotics, digital art, makerspace fabrication, woodworking, ensemble performance, and composition. These programs build on Oxford Academy’s foundation —personalized attention, real-world application, and the understanding that education works best when it connects to students’ passions and dreams.

The Oxford Academy community continues to create transformative experiences where young men discover not just what they can learn, but who they can become.
