Middletown has a lot to offer for students who are interested in health, finances, and business jobs. They dont have much for the students who want to do human services. But they have a great staff and a great academic program that students benefit from.

I have never been in a bad situation there. I enjoy all of my teachers and they actually teach. Throughout me four year there, I have never had a bad experience there. Being a very involved student, I have to work well with time management and this school helps me to do so.

would not reccomend putting your child in this school district AT ALL. they do not care about the students mental health, your kid will get bullied and they do not do anything. and from experience the teaching system is slow, your child won’t get a good education here. It’s confusing to me as to how...

Male teachers are too concerned with sports, female teachers too concerned with liberal feminaziism. Teach STEM and intro to arts/humanities and leave your footballs and politics at home please - the students will be much more productive citizens and professionals.

My daughter has Been enrolled in MASD for 9 years. She is gifted and the program has worked very well for her. She has a core group of teachers that to this day still follow her success.
