When I first arrived at OBI, I was struck by the community and support permeating the school. From the staff members to the teachers, everyone was committed to helping us succeed both academically and personally.
One of the things I appreciated the most was the personalized attention I received from teachers and staff members. With small class sizes and a low student-to-teacher ratio, I was able to get the individualized support I needed to thrive academically. This was especially important for me as an international student adjusting to a new country and culture.
However, I did notice that the school's limited funds sometimes limited what could be offered to students. I would have loved to have more opportunities in certain areas.
Overall, my experience at OBI was defined by a commitment to academic excellence, personal growth, and faith-based values. I am grateful for how it helped me develop into a confident.

Oneida Baptist Institute gives my children not only a place where education is valued but also somewhere that teaches them commitment to faith by glorifying God. They share our moral values and have teachers who model Christian principles! We have been blessed to have such a wonderful experience with our son’s school. The staff at OBI makes you feel like family and like your are right at home!
When I initially joined, I anticipated everyone to be antisocial and to ignore me, but surprise, the instructors were so polite and they greeted me and showed me my room in a kind and positive way that I enjoyed, and the more I said there and got to know my surroundings, the more I became comfortable. I loved our dorm life how we hang out and stay together it was pretty fun, At the dorm, the buddies became like family and it became the thing I missed when I graduated form Oneida Baptist Institute or as for it's new name “ Outstanding Bold Inspiring (OBI).
Overall my 2 years experience there was wonderful I enjoyed my senior trip the most:) but I will say it help me grow as a person and become more independent and I will say the teachers and my surrounding has prepared me for life.
