• The role of a middle school is to prepare students for life both in school and beyond.  Students will begin learning about the 16 Career Clusters in the 6th grade.  In the 7th grade, students will take a Career Interest Inventory.  This information will be used in the 8th grade when students and families have their first Individual Graduation Planning meeting. In the 8th grade, the school counselor will continue to help students be prepared for the high school registration process.  Students will further research their career paths.  OMS counselors introduce colleges and discuss how every student CAN go!  We aim to help our students be College and Career Ready!
     
    In the 8th grade, students experience going off campus for Job Shadow Day.
