​ABOUT OUR SCHOOL

 1979 was the first year of operation for Land O’Lakes Intermediate School, named for its location on Land O’Lakes Drive. Sylvia L. Perez was the school’s first principal. The name of the school was soon changed to recognize the former President of Texas Southmost College, Dr. Arnulfo L. Oliveira, a long time Brownsville educator. Through community participation with Adopt-A-School partners, collaboration among various elementary feeder schools, the involvement of a committed faculty and staff, and the participation of interested parents, Oliveira Middle School continues to excel. The campus is committed to excellence and scholastic achievement for all students.
​

Oliveira Middle School was established in 1979 and is named in honor of Dr. Arnulfo L. Oliveira. A Brownsville native, he was president of Pan American University-Brownsville and was a well-respected administrator who had served as an educational adviser to U.S. presents and Texas governors. Before being selected at PAU Brownsville’s president in August 1977, he was president of Texas Southmost College.
