Summary

Old Mill Middle North in Millersville, MD, is a public middle school serving 958 students in grades 6-8, part of the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, and has recently shown a dramatic improvement in performance, jumping from a 2-star to a 3-star rating and reaching its best state ranking in nearly a decade.

The school's most notable strength is its exceptional performance in advanced mathematics, with 55.1% of students taking the Algebra I exam scoring proficient—more than double the district and state averages. This is a standout achievement compared to nearby schools like Old Mill Middle South (37.9%) and MacArthur Middle (41.9%). However, there is a wide gap between this advanced track and general math, where only 6.2% of 8th graders are proficient. In English Language Arts (ELA), the school's 54.3% proficiency rate is slightly below the district average but significantly higher than many peers, including Meade Middle (34.3%) and Brooklyn Park Middle (41.2%). The school also outperforms its sister school, Old Mill Middle South, in both ELA and chronic absenteeism, which has dropped sharply from 29.8% to 15.9%—now well below the district average.

This improvement story is remarkable: from the 2022-2023 school year to the 2025-2026 school year, the school's state ranking jumped from the 34th to the 60th percentile, math proficiency nearly doubled, and ELA proficiency rose from 34.1% to 54.3%. The school also shows a notable strength in supporting Hispanic and Asian students, who ranked in the 64th percentile in 2020-2021. However, areas of concern include support for Special Education students (8th percentile) and military-connected students (15th percentile), which is especially important given the school's proximity to Fort Meade. Overall, Old Mill Middle North is a school on the rise, with a strong advanced math program and improving attendance, though it still faces challenges in general math and support for specific student groups.

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

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
