midvalemiddle-colorSuccess Lies Within Us

Welcome to the Midvale Middle School!

We believe Success Lies Within Us. The "Us" refers to Midvale, to our staff, to our students and to our parents. As the saying goes It takes a village to raise a child. We work together to create and support the best learning environment possible. And we are anxious to work with you.

Midvale Middle School’s tradition of excellence has been going strong for more than five decades. We believe in providing an educational experience that will help each student become a resourceful thinker, a life-long learner, a responsible citizen and an effective communicator.

Midvale Middle School was recently approved as a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP).  Congratulations!

Midvale Middle offers the only secondary accelerated magnet program in the district. which accounts for nearly half of our student population. The program offers both honors and advanced courses to accelerated students, allowing them to engage in a more challenging and individualized curriculum path throughout middle school.  Several Midvale’s teachers have state endorsements in Gifted and Talented education.

Canyons District’s blueprint for innovation and growth was developed with the aim of strengthening our schools.  Part of that plan is to move the 9th grade to high school in either 2012 or 2013.  The recently passed bond will allow Canyons District to begin addressing many school rebuilding and renovation needs.  Please watch the District’s Web site — www.canyonsdistrict.org — for information regarding the District’s academic and facilities plan. 

Feel free to explore our site and contact us with any questions or suggestions. If you have suggestions of information that we should have on our website, please let us know.

Midvale Middle And Canyons District News

School Calendar Change--Canyons District’s school year will be reduced five days in 2010-2011 to help address a $13 million shortfall that is largely the result of the economic downturn. The move, which includes accompanying unpaid furlough days, is one of several cost-cutting strategies made by the Board of Education in its tentative $198 million budget.  Although far from ideal, the one-time furloughs allow the Board and Administration to make significant strides toward balancing the budget while also safeguarding jobs and protecting the integrity of the District’s academic programs.  CLICK HERE FOR DATES
