District Update - April 16

Superintendent's Message
With the month of May on the horizon, it’s hard to believe that another school year has almost come and gone.
I'd like to take a moment to remind our families and students to remain present in these final weeks. As parents, sometimes we forget to slow down and savor the many firsts and lasts that each school year brings. And, though several more exciting years of learning and growth are still in store for our younger students, I am sure our high school families wouldn't hesitate to share how quickly time flies!
Now is also a great time to thank those who have made a difference in your student's educational journey, as the first of May also marks the beginning of Teacher Appreciation Week. While we take time to honor and celebrate all of our Midview Local School District teachers during this week, our unwavering appreciation for them lasts all year long. Please help us recognize and honor Midview staff by leaving a short message of kindness. Messages will be shared with staff and on social media!
As always, your continued support of our students, staff, and district is greatly appreciated!
Take care,
Dr. Willingham
