Students in Mrs. Thompson’s classrooms of Middleton Middle School students will have enhanced educational opportunities through interactive technology. Mrs. Thompson submitted a grant proposal entitled ‘Beyond’ and has been awarded a $9,995 grant through Century Link to purchase 16 Lenovo ThinkPad tablets with keyboard docks, which means that her students will have technology at their fingertips. State School Superintendent Tom Luna surprised Mrs. Thompson by presenting her with the grant award on Monday, January 30th. There were more than 100 grant proposals submitted and only 12 were selected throughout the State of Idaho.

Mrs. Thompson states, “Project Beyond will empower our students through exposing them to the world outside of what they know. Many of the students have never left Idaho, never seen the ocean, walked in the Redwoods, viewed historical artifacts or stood in our nation’s capital. Technology can transport kids to places they have never been and allow virtual experiences of history and life in other corners of the world. As students continue through their education and into the work force, technology will continue to advance. Utilizing the technology that ThinkPad Tablets can provide will foster higher level thinking and life-long skills needed for the future.”

Superintendent Luna stated about these grant awards, "These teachers know and understand the important role technology can play in the classroom to help individualize instruction and raise academic achievement for every student. I am grateful to Century Link for its continued commitment to Idaho's teachers and students every year as they work to bring these innovative ideas to life and create the 21st Century Classroom in every school."

The Middleton School District Board members unanimously approved the following as the date, time and location of their regular monthly meetings:

Date: Second Monday of each month
Time: 6:15 pm
Location: District Office Boardroom
5 South 3rd Avenue West
Middleton, ID 83644

A School Board meeting is not a public forum; rather it is a time for the patrons and visitors to listen and observe both the discussion and actions of your elected School Board members. Audience participation (at the discretion of the School Board) may be allowed as a signed in visitor or as an individual/group who has submitted an advance written request.

Individuals and groups wishing to address the School Board should deliver a written request to the Superintendent’s office by 4 pm, seven days prior to the scheduled School Board meeting. No action on your item will be taken at that time. However, action could be scheduled for a subsequent meeting of the School Board.

Individuals approved to address the School Board will be limited to three minutes in duration. Delegations or large groups approved to address the School Board will be limited to fifteen minutes in duration and have one designated spokesperson.

As elected representatives, School Board members encourage your input to them, prior to monthly meetings as well as your attendance (as patrons) at their regular monthly meetings, PTA meetings, Booster Club meetings and other school related events.
