Very much a school. All the teachers are leaving. Food is quality for a school. Dead bird behind courtyard wall. Mr. Adame is the GOAT. Swedish Flag. The 4 stars in teachers is being carried by Mr. Adame. By facilities I assume bathrooms. Most fun websites banned by smoothwall but I have a plan to remove it from IPad. Constant outsiders bringing in learning days.

Middletown is a very dangerous and drug filled school. The school is small and teacherless. Would not recommend

I really liked the teachers and their thorough teaching methods! I enjoyed the patience that they had with their students. I liked that there was barely any bullying and the school was overall a safe place for students of all types.

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.
