OMO
Academic Support


We need your help to provide academic support to students K-12 every Wednesday.

The idea: Retired teachers, high school students, and community members will be available throughout the day at specific times by subject to offer a study-hall type place for students to go for support.

How to help: If you are able to volunteer for these group sessions for one hour, please sign up using the links below based on your area of expertise.

OM Learning Teams


The Oakland Mills Learning Team Network is reaching out to parents and students in our community who are interested in connecting with each other to form small learning or social groups.

These groups will be organized similar to a scout troop model: we will maintain a master list of interested families, but groups will be managed by a volunteer grade-level facilitator. Each small group will work together to establish its own schedule. Facilitators will work with families in their selected grade levels to form small groups, but are not expected to manage scheduling, etc., for each group.

We are also collecting names of volunteers, including high school students, parents, and former teachers, willing to serve as free tutors for learning teams upon request.
Note: For now the facilitators are coordinating only for OMHS/OMMS feeder schools' students.

A-OK Mentoring and Tutoring

​About A-OK: A-OK Mentoring & Tutoring exists to help Howard County elementary and middle school students succeed. A-OK services are FREE.

A-OK HISTORY:  A-OK Mentoring-Tutoring, Inc. began in 2003 on a grassroots level and was entirely volunteer-driven. After many years, in 2009, the program incorporated and only recently has supported a small, part-time, staff to administer the program. Volunteerism is the foundation on which the organization is built and it is the consistency of an adult relationship that the volunteers bring that is the crucial ingredient to helping the students served succeed in schoo
