In the 2014–2015 school year, OKM took in seventh-grade students, due to the local elementary schools being overcrowded. When Canyon Falls Middle School opened in September 2019, the school became grade 8–12, and starting in September 2020 it is grade 9–12. They now have 2 Vice Principals to assist with the large number of students. Also in the 2014-2015 year, OKM changed the husky logo due to the old one being too similar to the University of Washington's logo, who are also the Huskies.

OKM was ranked by the Fraser Institute in 2015 as 23 out of 294 British Columbian Secondary Schools. Okanagan Mission Secondary is one of the highest-ranked schools in the SD23 district.^[1]

As of Fall 2022, OKM will have a French Immersion program available to its students.^[2]
