Middletown Academics
Welcome to the Academics section! Under the guidance of
Richard Del Moro, Director for Secondary Education,
Dr. Darlene McDonough, Director for Elementary Education
and Dr. Linda Hatfield, Literacy Coordinator, students
have the opportunity to experience a variety of
educational avenues to help each child reach their full
potential.
Standards-based learning & Arts in Education (AIE) programming
are allowing students to participate in educational
activities linked to specific New York State standards.
In addition, students at the high school level can
receive college credit even before graduation by taking
college-level courses offered as part of the curriculum.
This
year Middletown launched several new programs like
Project Lead The Way (PLTW) at Middletown High School
and Twin Towers Middle School, and the Middletown Freshman
Academy at the high school. Middletown is also one of 56
school districts in New York State to develop an
educational enhancement plan, known as a Contract for
Excellence, with the State Education Department (SED) to
use additional state aid to improve student achievement.
