Located between SouthPark and Dilworth neighborhoods, this Middle School is in a prime spot. Now I…read morecan't review the school itself since I am way past middle school age... but I come here often to use the school's track. Usually in the mornings. There are other fitness groups that use the track F3 and other running groups, but usually everyone is pretty nice (especially at 5am). The track itself is not lit (lighted), but the streetlights from Runnymede give you enough ambient light to run on the track early on. Just try not to wear all black - unless you are going for a ninja look or trying to scare someone. Aside from the track - there are plenty of parking spaces and access to the fields. A lot of times I see the F3 guys rolling around in the grass, or doing suicide runs on the basketball courts. I'm just happy I actually got out of bed at that hour to run.

OMS is highly recommended for 6th and 7th grades, but 8th grade is another story, depending on what…read moreteam the students get put on. Our child has only had excellent teachers, and our family has always thought highly of the school district. This is the first school year we have been disappointed in OMS. We can all agree that there will always be teachers that students and parents are not 100% fond of, but this year was different. The number of parents and students complaining about the English I class on a specific team is mindboggling. The students and parents talk to one another, so everyone knows the difference between one English I class and another at OMS and NGC. The parents know one English I class is more demanding and harder than the rest. We know parents complained to the district last year, and the solution was moving those students to a different team, which is why many parents decided not to go to the district this year -- no hope for change. We also know that moving students to a different team was a solution for some students again this year. While the assistant principal has been very active in trying to help with all the complaints, for which all the students and parents are thankful, the principal's lack of action and empathy is a major concern. If a concern is brought to the principal's attention, he quickly dismisses the complaint and offers no solutions or ways to help. It does not matter if 1 or 1,000 students complain about the same issue; he will not stick up for the person(s) on the other end but will always make excuses for what you are trying to bring to his attention. There is a quick answer or reason for EVERYTHING! Do not go to the principal expecting any resolution for problems because he simply does not care and will do nothing. There is no "let me look into this" and get back to you; the conversation is done! This issue extends beyond the current students at OMS. It is about the students who endured a similar experience last year and will face the same challenges after current students leave. The problem is more than just moving kids from one team to another; it is about the quality of education and the learning environment at OMS. If the district truly values the students at OMS, they must thoroughly evaluate the English I course and the teacher. The school's reputation, particularly with 8th grade, is rapidly deteriorating and will only worsen if nothing is done.

The school has gotten better since the change out of the Principle from Ms. Moore to Ms. Reep. The former principle violated privacy laws by asking some kids to open their Facebook accounts without prior consent of parents. Security at the school is good. Our experience here is few major incidents. The football field is located across the street directly across from the Mt. Holly Library.
