NYSED requires districts to submit a student digital access survey for every student attending our district. They will use the information from the responses to plan strategies for digital and educational equity for all NYS students. We are asking you to help us fulfill this requirement and complete this survey for each grade Kindergarten-12 student in your family attending Middletown City Schools. 

Digital Equity Survey (English)     Encuesta de equidad digital (Español)

The information you submit is confidential and will only be shared with NYSED. 

Please join us in congratulating the following Middie musicians who were accepted into Elementary All-County. These young musicians had to perform an audition (consisting of a difficult solo, sight reading, and scales) on January 7 in Goshen. They will perform with other accepted musicians from around Orange County at the Orange County Music Educators Association on April 29 at Twin Towers Middle School.

We will share photos of these talented scholar-musicians when they are available.
