Despite its location in Franklin Township, the school has a Newfield mailing address. Operated under the auspices of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Camden,[2] the first class, consisting of 23 students, graduated in June 1965. Its first principal was Sister M. Dolores. The first faculty members were Sisters Gertrude, Dominica, and Matthew Marie; now, most of the faculty is lay. As of the 2015-16 school year, the school had an enrollment of 125 students and 19.3 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 6.5:1. The school's student body was 84.8% White, 8.0% Black, 4.8% Asian, 1.6% Hispanic, 0.8% Native Hawaiian / Pacific Islander[3] OLMA is the only all-girls high school in South Jersey. The school grounds span {{convert|57|acre}} and include a gym, sports fields, a Chapel and an indoor pool. Its traditions include a senior trip to Florida, a religious retreat for all grades, junior Ring Mass and celebrations of Thanksgiving, Christmas, Three Kings Day, Mary Day, and pi day. DescriptionThe school colors are green and gold; Green represents hope; gold represents victory.[2] The school motto is "Knowledge and Truth". The school crest features a lamp for knowledge, a globe for truth, a cross for Christianity, an open book "of life" and an "M" for the Blessed Mother. The school is inspired by the vision of Saint Mary Joseph Rossello, who educated young girls in the 19th century. The school's community service club is named in her honor. OLMA is a sister school to St. Augustine College Preparatory School, the all-boys college prep school in Southern New Jersey, with which they share certain amenities such as busing and use of sports fields. Each year, students, faculty, staff, family, friends, and alumni gather for the traditional Communion Breakfast, a Mass followed by a brunch. On October 2, 2011, this event kicked off OLMA's year-long 50th anniversary celebration, and featured as guest speaker Theresa Grentz of collegiate basketball fame.
