Mrs. Cheryl Hall is a legend at OMS. She began her teaching career at Ooltewah in 1982. She has seen a lot over the years and has been an intrical part of the tremendous success in our Math Department. As a young girl and with inspiration from her 6th grade math teacher, Pat Head, Mrs. Hall decided to be a math teacher. She continues to teach Mathematics at Ooltewah Middle School for 30 years now. Falling in love with math, she would prefer no other subject to teach. The best thing about teaching in her eyes is when the “light bulb goes off”, and the students get it! Mrs. Hall says she plans to continue teaching at our school until she cannot teach any longer. Mrs. Hall is an amazing teacher and the OMS website solutes her.

Students Take the ACT Explore Test
By 6th Grade Student: Macy Wheeler
The Explore is a test taken by the 8th graders to predict how a student will do on the ACT. The Explore test also asks questions about college and what kind of job the student wants to have when they grow up. So, this test has a great impact on a student’s future, and therefore it is important for them to do well. Jacob Mathews a Crusader student at OMS confirmed that by saying “ the test is the beginning of the student’s future” and Bailey Hannah said “it will help you get a good job, good college, and make your parents proud.”
At OMS teachers have a unique way of motivating the 8th graders; the school hosts a pep rally. Mr. Eller told the press that the pep rally “ increases awareness of the importance as well as shows support for out students taking it. This is the ‘ Big Game’ for the 8th graders.”
Mr. Eller also stated that “ if our students do well our school gets the confirmation that our teachers are teaching lessons that compare to the national levels. Students get their academic ability levels verified and the school gets validation regarding teaching.” That is a really big deal! The results of the test will be in sometime in February, so students will have to wait until they come back to find out how they did and what their futures might hold.
