Due to the threat of inclement weather on December 8, all after school events have been cancelled. Arts Night has been rescheduled to Thursday, December 11. Doors open at 5:00 PM.

PreACT score reports and testing booklets were sent home with 10th grade students on Monday. The score sheet includes both your student’s PreACT results and a prediction of how they may perform on the ACT. Both the score report and the booklet are excellent resources to help your student prepare for next year’s ACT exam. If your 10th grade student did not pick up their scores, have them see Mr. Pollock.

It's the season of giving. This year, give the gift of life! Donate blood at Midway High School today from 8:30-2:30 PM.

Congratulations to our September Teacher of the Month, Jody Ellis! Thank you so much for all you do to make Midway High School a great place to work and learn!
