Oakland High School

Oakland High School (OHS) is located in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, U.S. It has approximately 2,300 students. OHS is part of the fourth largest school system in the state. OHS serves eastern Murfreesboro and the rural areas of northeastern and eastern Rutherford County, including Lascassas, Milton, and Kittrell. History OHS opened in 1972 along with a sister school Riverdale High School (RHS). The schools were the first two high schools built after Central Magnet School in the Rutherford County school system. While the school began as a traditional high school, OHS would add specialized programs to its curriculum, such as the AP program, the IB program, and vocational programs like the Mechatronics program. These programs led to the school becoming a choice school through OHS Choice. In 2022, the Rutherford County School board proposed a renovation to OHS including 140,000 square feet of new construction. The Rutherford County Budget, Finance, and Investment committee met in April 2023 and approved the allocation of $47 million dollars to the project. The constriction will begin in the summer of the 2023.
