Summary

Old Mill Middle North is a public magnet middle school located in Millersville, Maryland, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 924 students. It is part of the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, which is ranked 13 out of 25 in Maryland and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its magnet program, Old Mill Middle North consistently underperforms compared to the Anne Arundel County and Maryland state averages in both mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 16% of students were proficient or better in MCAP Mathematics, compared to 28.8% in the county and 26.5% statewide. The school's performance is particularly low in 8th-grade mathematics, with only 6% of students proficient or better, compared to 12.9% in the county and 8.7% statewide. Additionally, Old Mill Middle North has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.1% to 29.8% over the past few years, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

The school's challenges are further highlighted by its proximity to other middle schools in the area, such as Severna Park Middle, which is ranked 1st in the state and has significantly higher academic proficiency rates. While Old Mill Middle North's magnet program may provide additional resources and opportunities, the school's performance suggests that there may be opportunities for collaboration and sharing of best practices with higher-performing schools to help improve student outcomes.

Open Quote Even though my daughter was unenrolled in this school. She was able to attend a full day of classes. When I went to pick my child up, they were unable to locate my daughter. Close Quote

Open Quote Teachers are more "reactive" than proactive regarding motivating the students. If you, as a parent keep in constant communication with your childs teacher and your childs school progress, then they'll take an interest in your child too...It's how it should be. I also believe in parent-teacher conferencing and recognition gifts after the school year for those teachers who really make a difference in your childs life Close Quote
