We could not be more pleased with Midway! The teachers are wonderful and all the staff is great! Christ is the central focus at Midway in every area of study. We are not Presbyterian but have never felt any problem with attending a school that is. It is Biblical based not a specific religion. My children love it!! All the families seem to really care about their children having good behavior and good manners which is rare these days. When I hear about stories at public schools I thank God for providing another option for our childrens education. It is affordable and worth every penny!
I like it here. Teachers are amazing, the Dean can be a headache, the Principal's awesome. There is a huge problem though. You need to know if you go hear you will be getting a covenant classical education. All we sing is hymns, real music is unheard of. Also everything is centered on Presbyterian denominational teachings. Catechism is memorized from Kindergarten. Latin is taught starting in 3rd grade. Can be subbed for German starting in 7th. The PTF (equivalent of PTA) doesn't do much, and the food is yuck. Also, some teachers and school policy has a sexism problem favoring girls. All chapel services have a strict guidelines: "Teacher: Good Morning, students Students: Good Morning, Mrs. Kline. This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it." Pledge American flag, pledge Christian flag, prayer, sing school song (King Alfred's War Song, kind of emo lyrics),
A wonderful place to send your most precious children to be educated. Christ centered and such awesome teachers.
i hated this school as i attended it for six years. it had ok teachers but they didnt focus on anything for the student. i dont recomend going here because it is terrible. Dont go
Our children have been at Midway for 4 wonderful years and are learning far above their grade levels. We have been very pleased!
My children have attended this wonderful school for 4 years now and I am very pleased with the very high percentile Standardized Testing results my children are achieving due to their education at Midway. I also enjoy the diversity of Christian denominations represented at the school and the Biblical worldview my kids are learning.
The academics at this school are tremendous. They do a wonderful job of preparing their students for the next level. They offer art and music classes for all grades. They only have 2 sports at the school (cross-country and basketball) but plan to make strides in that area in the near future.
