Owings Mills High School |
Owings Mills High School (OMHS) is a four-year public high school in Baltimore County, Maryland, United States. It is part of the Baltimore County Public Schools consolidated school district.
The school is located in the racially diverse community of Owings Mills, just northeast of I-795 and southwest of Maryland Route 140. The school's district borders Franklin High School, Dulaney High School, Pikesville High School, and New Town High School. The school is on 37 acres (150,000 m2) of land and the main building has 174,647 square feet (16,225.2 m2).[1] The school colors are brown and gold.
Students
The graduation rate at Owings Mills has been steadily falling. Over the past 10 years, it hit a high of 90.5% in 1997, but has fallen to a low of just 79% in 2006.[2] Over 10% of the students receive special services, a high number by state standards.[3] Over 32% of the students receive free or reduced meals, also a high number.[4]
Though the student population has lowered in the past few years, it did steadily rise from the early 1990s until 2003 when it peaked. The composition of the school's population is diverse. As of 2006, the majority of the students, 58%, are African-American, 17% Caucasian, 16 Hispanic, 6% Asian/Pacific Islander, and less than 1% are Native American.[5]
The results of High School Assessments are mixed, but mostly poor results. Only 38.5% passed the Algebra test, 62.% for Biology, 70.3% for Government, and 57.7% for English.[4]
The student body makeup is 53 percent male and 47 percent female, and the total minority enrollment is 78 percent.
On the recent 2015 US News, Owings Mills High is ranked 61st in state and ranked 2,032nd nationally.[6]
