Oak Grove High School is a public secondary school located in North Little Rock, Arkansas and serves grades 9 through 12. Oak Grove High School is administered by the Pulaski County Special School District. Since 1967, Oak Grove has been accredited by the North Central Association (NCA) Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (CASI). Oak Grove's official colors are green and white and the school's mascot is a hornet.
The 2010-2011 school year will be the last year for Oak Grove to operate. The school mascot will be transferred to the new high school being built a few miles away in Maumelle, AR.(The current faculty/staff must re-apply, students will roll over) The name "Oak Grove" will, sadly, not transfer. The 2011-2012 school year will be the first year in which Maumelle has had its own high school.
