October is Principal Appreciation Month!

In Mid-Del Schools, we know we have some of the BEST principals around!

Our principals are more than the leaders of their schools; they are educational leaders who set the tone for learning, support our teachers and staff, encourage our students, and build strong connections with families and our community. Every day, they help make our schools places where students can learn, grow, and succeed.

We are proud of the leadership, heart, and purpose our principals bring to the Mid-Del Family!

💬 Now we want to hear from YOU! Who is a principal, past or present, who made a difference in your life or the life of your child? Give them a shout-out in the comments and tell us why they are someone you will always remember!

Yesterday was a fantastic day! Anytime we can come together and listen to our students share their voices, it’s a great day in Mid-Del Schools. Dr. Cobb’s Superintendent Student Advisory Board (SAB) met at Midwest City High School, where we started the day talking about digital portfolios and resumes before shifting gears to record this week’s episode of Off the Record! We are thankful for the opportunity to meet with juniors and seniors from each of our high schools and hear directly from them about what matters most. 🎧 The episode drops TOMORROW! Our students talk about what makes a great teacher, why student voice matters, and much more. They even put Dr. Cobb on the spot with a question of their own! 👀 Watch, share, and help us make sure our community, families, staff, and students hear what our SAB students have to say! #ChooseMidDel #MDPurpose #OneDistrictOneFamily

We are proud to see Mid-Del represented in important work happening across Oklahoma!

Kayla Tilley, Carl Albert Middle School Counselor, recently joined 35 other school counselors representing 31 Oklahoma school districts and communities for specialized training through the Southern Regional Education Board’s (SREB) Crisis Recovery Network.

The training prepares school counselors to provide psychological first aid, assess the needs of a school community, and support students and staff following a traumatic event. Participants are also building a statewide network of counselors who can step in and support one another when additional resources are needed.

We love seeing our Mid-Del team members represent our district while working alongside educators and organizations from across Oklahoma to support students, staff, and school communities.

Way to represent Mid-Del, Kayla!
