Welcome to the Oyster River Middle School

Working Together to Engage Every Learner

Mission Statement

ORMS Mission and C.A.R.E. Philosophy The ORMS mission is to provide a creative and developmentally appropriate learning environment recognizing the educational, social, and emotional needs of every learner.  Our goal is that every learner  will develop skills needed to become a responsible, lifelong learner who is able to serve the school, community, and/or the world. Students and staff members at ORMS work within the C.A.R.E. philosophy.

To CARE at ORMS means to COMMUNICATE clearly, to have a positive ATTITUDE, to show RESPECT for self, others, and the school environment, and to make the EFFORT necessary to being a successful learner.  This philosophy is reinforced throughout each school day at every grade level and in all school programs and activities.
