The Natalbany Fire Department firemen taught the students about fire safety.  The students got to meet Sparky and they also got to tour the inside of the fire truck.

Southeastern Lady Lions joined Midway Elementary to honor the first six weeks Star Students who were selected by their teachers for having outstanding behavior and leadership qualities.  

Coach Ayla Guzzardo and the Ladies SLU Basketball Team enjoyed helping Midway Elementary Pre-K students get to their classrooms and Kindergarten students with their morning routines.  The ladies also read a story to Mrs. Kristi McDonald's and Mrs. Whitney Bacon's classes, along with the other Kindergarten classes .  The ladies came to help out straight from their morning practice.  Much thanks goes out to the Lions for their help!

We are proud to announce the members of our first Accelerated Reader "50 Point Club."

These students have spent a great deal of time reading and then completing a comprehension test on the computer.  If they pass the test with at least 80% accuracy they earn 0.5 points.  So in order to reach 50 points they have read and passed more than 100 test.  Congratulations!
