Welcome to Mount Olive Primary School.  Our school is affectionately known as MOPS.  We are a Pre-K through 2nd-grade school located in the Fort Mitchell community, Russell County, Alabama. Our location is just outside of Fort Moore. We have a close and supportive community where everyone is welcome.  Our students are close to 40% military connected. We enjoy making connections and helping students and families adjust to their new home. Our teachers place an emphasis on helping students transition by connecting them with other students, helping them learn about their classroom and school, explaining all expectations and rules, and connecting with parents through our communication system. Our eS2S Ambassadors welcome new students. Many parental involvement events are available throughout the year and we celebrate the Month of the Military Child in April.
