Mid-Del School District

SPRING has SPRUNG at Tinker Elementary! Ms. Dawn Barbee, Tinker's amazing school nurse, is bringing the sunshine indoors with these bloom-tastic decorations! The entire Tinker Elementary office is bursting with color and warmth—just like the care she gives our students every day. We’re grateful for staff who go above and beyond to make our schools feel like home. #mdpurpose #SchoolNurse #OneDistrictOneFamily

Today is brewing with appreciation because it’s National Joe Day — and we’re celebrating one of Mid-Del’s finest, Joe Clayton! Parkview Elementary showed Joe just how much he’s loved with gifts, gratitude, and a whole lot of cheer. Joe is truly essential to Mid-Del — he keeps our campuses and support sites connected by delivering important mail and making sure communication flows across the district like clockwork. He visits every school every day! From all of us in Mid-Del… we love you, Joe! You’re more than just our go-to guy — you’re a legend. #NationalJoeDay #ThankYouJoe #mdpurpose #OneDistrictOneFamily

This week, our middle school students dove into powerful lessons on the dangers of vaping and tobacco use—part of our ongoing commitment to keeping harmful products out of the hands of youth. Thanks to support from the ABLE Commission and TSET, these presentations are helping students make informed, healthy choices that last a lifetime. Special thanks to Captain Erik Smoot and Agent Nathan Barnes for leading these impactful sessions and equipping our students with knowledge they can carry forward. Knowledge is power—and we’re proud to empower the next generation! #mdpurpose #VapeEducation #HealthyChoices #TSET #ABLECommission
