About Oakmont
Our Community
Oakmont Regional High School serves students from the towns of Ashburnham and Westminster. These towns, located in North Central Massachusetts, are considered rural/residential in character. Beautiful lakes, scenic trails, and close proximity to Mount Wachusett make this an attractive area in which to reside. While there are a number of large employers, easy access to Rt. 2 also means many commute to and from Boston.
Our School
Oakmont educates students in grades 9 through 12 with an enrollment of approximately 640 pupils (EOY 2025). A strong college preparatory curriculum is offered including Honors and Advanced Placement courses. Our varied curriculum includes an innovative technology program as well as numerous co-curricular activities. For a more detailed description of the co-curricular activities, please see the Oakmont Explorer Page or our Program of studies.
Oakmont operates on a 4 x 4 semester block schedule, which began in 1997. All classes are 83 minutes long, with the vast majority of them running for one semester and earning one full credit. One-half of a credit is awarded in Fitness, Health, Financial Literacy, Applied Studies, Learning Center and Band and/or Chorus. There are several other half credit elective options as well that alternate every other day with another half credit course. Seniors are allowed to waive Fitness in lieu of other athletic pursuits.
