The Hinson Split

At the beginning of the 2005-2006 School Year, a new school built in honor of David C. Hinson, Sr. (was Area 1 District Superintendent until killed in a car crash) was opened and split the OBMS student population in half. Many OBMS teachers also were switched to Hinson. Ormond Beach Middle School is much smaller now due to this split.
