I was at the school track this morning and was horrified to find the oaks cut down! Who was responsible?

my special needs son is bullied and we have reported it multiple times and nothing was said or done they really do not care

The school does nothing about bullies. the staff does not care or turns a blind eye parents with special need students should look at other places for the student to attend and be safe.

Mr. Blum has sent a strong message that bullying will not be tolerated - or else! ;0) (It works).

LOMS curriculum is tailored for every student, learning at every level and capacity.

The best I have seen. This faculty leads by example from top to bottom.
Posted: October 28, 2016
The Vice-Principal, Mr. Blum is the coach in this regards, leading by example and accepting nothing less from his faculty.

They go above and beyond what their desk procedures state each and every day. Their motivation comes from above in a positive way.

Advanced, challenging and progressive. However, this method is only effective due to the exceptional instruction by the top notch faculty.

One of the parents tuned me into this site (greatschools.org) and encouraged me to post here to get the word out on LOMS. Simply, FANTASTIC!! FANTASTIC!! FANTASTIC!! This is a California public school who has gotten it right. The learning environment is healthy, thought-provoking, caring (strict when necessary) and successful! The children (all of them) thrive and excel at this exceptional school; and view education as a positive pathway to accomplish their future goals and aspirations. What I have experienced and witnessed at LOMS, the curriculum is led by enthusiastic and spirited teachers, responsible for this schools exceptionalism. I would rank this middle school as the best on the central coast, and one of the tops nationally. Whenever you see SLO parents shuttling their children to LOMS, it speaks volumes

I am only familiar with the sixth grade curriculum and am very pleased. My grandson is doing very well and is excited about the programs being taught. The teachers he has are very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I feel he is getting a good start in life.

Los Osos Middle School has been a real blessing for our child! He thrives in the new STEAM program (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math!) and we know he is getting the perfect education to prepare him for High School and college! Under new leadership and with technology at the forefront, the dedicated staff and teachers are able to create an optimal learning environment for the kiddos. GOOD vibes, GREAT school!
