It is a 100-question online test that covers language, literature, geography, history, science, math and general knowledge. These topics are not from a specific curriculum, but rather they represent general knowledge. Nearly 10,000 eighth graders across the country took this test this year.
We are pleased to announce that eighth grader, James Badishkanian, was named New Jersey State Champion receiving the highest score in the state! Oak Hill Academy now has SIX New Jersey State Champions overall since 2012!!

- 2018 – Alex Mitchell – New Jersey Champion
- 2016 – Jake Fradkin – New Jersey Champion
