Oak Hill was refused tax-exempt status by the IRS in the 1970s for refusal to execute a policy of non-discrimination.
The school's policy was a matter of questioning at the Senate confirmation of Lyonel Thomas Senter Jr. as a federal judge. His children attended Oak Hill.
In 1987, Oak Hill was still an all-white school, as described in Fyfe v. Curlee. In 2016, the school had no black students registered.
