February 5 | CCP Information Meeting for Rising 7th Graders

Midview Local Schools is sharing information about Ohio’s College Credit Plus (CCP) program for the 2026–2027 school year. CCP allows eligible students in grades 7–12 to earn both high school and college credit, often at no cost to families. Parents are encouraged to review the detailed CCP letter linked here. The CCP Parent Information Night, held in conjunction with the Midview High School Showcase, will take place on Thursday, February 5, 2026, from 5:30–6:30 p.m. in the APR (lunchroom) at Midview High School.

February 12 | East Mobile Dentist

Our school has partnered with Smile Programs, the mobile dentists, to offer convenient dental care right here at school. The mobile dentist provides a full range of services including exams, x-rays, cleaning, fluoride, sealants, and, when needed, fillings—all in the familiar school setting. Best of all, if your child is insured with Medicaid/CHIP, there’s usually no cost! They also offer options for private insurance and affordable self-pay. The Mobile Dentist will visit East Intermediate on February 12. Sign your child up today by visiting this link or by returning the permission form sent home this week.

Gifted Identification

The referral window to recommend a student for gifted identification in the area of superior cognitive ability, academic ability, creativity, and/or visual performing arts is now open. If you feel your child may meet the criteria as established by the State Department of Education and the Midview Local School District, please complete the following questionnaire no later than Friday, January 16, 2026.

Colder Weather

As colder weather settles into Ohio, please remember to send your child to school prepared with a hat, gloves, and coat. We will continue to enjoy outdoor recess any day that is above 25 degrees, with wind chill.

Please join us in thanking our board of education members for their service. January is School Board Recognition Month, and we are celebrating all month long. Help us thank our board members for guiding our students, schools, and community to new heights.

In 6th grade technology, students are learning what is involved in stop motion animation. They will be working through the process starting next week. In 5th grade, students are learning about Google Sheets and all of the things it can do. Next week, we'll create our own Sheets and compare whether dogs or cats are more expensive to own.

In Mrs. Golian’s math class, students have been diving deep into adding mixed numbers with unlike denominators. To sharpen this skill, we played a high-stakes game of 'Don’t Get Zapped!' The room was full of focus as students solved their way through the deck, but there was a twist—drawing a 'Zapped' card meant losing a turn! This friendly competition turned a challenging math concept into an engaging, high-energy classroom experience that made practicing feel like a win!

Congratulations to our December Students of the Month! These students went above and beyond demonstrating Generosity during the month of December. Keep up the great work!
