The school is a lot smaller than the other high schools in howard county and has a bad reputation but a lot of it is just rumors. The education is what the student makes of it. I really liked it here because it was diverse, small, and the students overall were welcoming. I found that since it was smaller it was easier to make connections and have fun. A lot of the teachers really cared about the students!
Oakland Mills High School is so diverse & very inclusive. You will never feel like you don't belong because there is a place for everyone. The curriculum is also amazing. I wasn't doing as well at my previous school until I came to OM. Although I've only been at OMHS for two years, I will forever be a Scorpion!
I have only been at Oakland Mills High School for 2 years so far, and it’s been a great experience. My freshman year, last year, was interrupted by the Coronavirus Pandemic and Quarantine, but before that I was able to join the Track team which was an amazing experience for me. The main parts I miss about the school right now are obviously the school environment, such as the people, marching band, and other school activities. For distance learning, my experience with that has not been so bad, I’m passing all my classes and able to still socialize with friends over phone calls. I am hopeful that we will be able to go back into the school building soon.
