Midway Elementary School

Midway is excellent, and easily one of the best elementary schools in the state. The teachers and administration are phenomenal and great to work with. Reading some of these complaints are a bit humorous. A great education can be fostered at school, but it begins at home. Perhaps reflection should be exercised more often.

Midway is an excellent school. The teachers and administration is invested in the students and keep parents informed of thing the children are learning. I like that the students get a lot of character building education at this school and there are service and other projects available to them. Everyone works very hard to ensure these kids get what they need to succeed in and out of the classroom.

My children attend Midway Elementary and we have been completely happy with their education. The teachers are warm friendly and are so genuine. They work hard at providing individual attention for every student. My son had reading difficulties and was identified right away. He was given extra help by the intervention team, he also had a speech problem which was addressed as well. The atmosphere at Midway is friendly and my children love their school. We are fortunate to live in area which has great schools, outstanding teachers and principals that think of the students first. Our principal visits every class room every day and she knows all of the children's names!

We were new to Midway this year, and overall have been very happy. Both of my children have teachers who seem loving, yet strict when it comes to work and behavior. Overall I think that is good as it sets the bar high. However, i do have an older child who may not have been able to handle that. I love the principal, who is always out and about, sitting at children's lunch tables for her own lunch so she can get to know them. The PTA is very active and that usually means good things for the school, even if some parents do not want to participate (per below). I have a child with a 504 and her teacher has been very accommodating and the review for next year was very easy. I have been to many schools, and am amazed at the language program here- you will have a hard time finding immersion programs in many other districts. Overall, nice environment, kind teachers, active programs (even after school) and very open to family involvement.
