Midd-West School District wants to hear from you regarding the use of Flexible Instruction Days (FIDS). During the 2023-2024 school year, we had a total of 3 Flexible Instruction Days. Two of those days were used in place of in-person snow make-up days and the other was due to inclement weather on the actual day instead of the District being closed. We are hoping the use of FIDs in the 2023-2024 school year is behind us and are now looking to the next school year. This is where we need your input. We ask for your participation in a brief Flexible Instruction Day Stakeholder Survey found on our website to provide us with your input about FIDS and their future use at MWSD. Your input is vital in helping us determine a direction with FIDS moving forward. The survey is open to any parent, guardian, student, staff, faculty, board member, and/or caregiver in the Midd-West School District and will stop accepting responses by the end of the day on Sunday, May 12, 2024. You can also access the survey here with this link: https://forms.office.com/r/W1u6nzKLFd.

Good Morning West Snyder Families,
Today, April 8, 2024, the Midd-West School District will be offering an opportunity for students who would like to experience the viewing of the solar eclipse to stay late. A signed permission slip is needed in order for students to stay for the event. For students participating in the district-wide event, the district will provide protective glasses and supervision for those students to safely view the eclipse. Students staying for the event will need to be picked up by 3:45 pm. For this event, when picking up a student at dismissal, parents/guardians should drive to the rear of the gym to be picked up like we do for normal dismissal. Thank you for your support in helping all interested students stay safe during the solar eclipse.
Spring Break starts this Thursday, March 28! There will be no school for students on Thursday, March 28 through Monday, April 1.

MWMS Parents and Students,
This is a reminder that tomorrow, Monday, February 19th will be flexible instruction day for students. All students should be working from home. The school day officially begins at 8:00am and ends at 3:00pm. Students should follow the schedule that is posted on our school website and follow the directions of their teachers. They must click on the attendance link in their Sapphire portal by 9:00am to be counted as "present" for the school day. Please reach out to school personnel with any questions or concerns you may have. Thank you, and have a great evening.
Mr. Brown
Good morning Midd-West High School Families. This message includes helpful information pertaining to the plan for today's Flexible Instruction Day for high school students.
To receive attendance credit for the day, high school students are required to sign in by 9:00 am via the Sapphire Community Portal. A message at the top of their homepage instructs them to enter their attendance via the Student Data Forms Tab. Under this tab, there is a form they must complete by entering their name and completing two drop-down menu questions.
If students do not sign in by 9 AM, it will be recorded as an absence from school, so please send a written excuse for the absence with your child the next day they return to school. If your child did not log in due to not having internet access or power, please send an excuse stating that as the reason. It will be excused but will count toward the student’s 10-day excused absence limit. The excused absence can be removed once the student submits their completed assignments for each of their classes one day after the next day they are present at school.
Additionally, there is a schedule posted with times students can go online to connect directly with their teachers for support in each content area as needed. They may also reach out via email to schedule a specific meeting time throughout the day.
Thank you for supporting your child’s education as we attempt to make this learning experience the best it can be via online methods.
There will be no school for students on Thursday, February 15 and Friday, February 16. Monday, February 19, MWSD will have our first snow make-up day. Instead of having a regular in-person make-up day, we will have a FID and not be in person on this make-up day. Students will be receiving their instruction remotely on this day.
Also, should the District need to CLOSE throughout the remainder of this school year, those CLOSED days will immediately be FIDs and remote instruction will occur on those actual days.
Please visit our main webpage to view the District’s FID Plan in the document labeled Flexible Instruction Day (FID) Guidelines for Students/Parents/Guardians. Have a great night!
