OMMS Student Accounts Information

Due to a statewide issue with PowerSchool, some student’s accounts have not been created. We are unable to troubleshoot this because it is an issue within PowerSchool. The company is diligently working on addressing this. As soon as it is fixed on their end, our accounts will be created and will be available for student use the next morning. A timeline for this has not been disseminated yet. Teachers are aware but please encourage your students to try to log in each morning and if unable, continue to ask for paper copies of assignments. 

Thank you!
