History
National Blue Ribbon School
Cedar Hill Prep School was founded in 2003 under the name Oakcrest Academy. Cedar Hill Prep School/Oakcrest Academy was founded by Dr. Nandini Menon and Dr. Raghu Menon.
The turning point for Oakcrest Academy was in 2006, when the school had reached its full capacity. The options were to either limit the growth or to be a full-fledged Elementary / Middle school. The founders bought a 9-acre property. The new building was ready in February 2007 and the school was christened Cedar Hill Prep School.
