Repeated attempts to get my son who has a chronic illness the support he needs went unattended until I contacted the district. Should I have to work that hard? I was contacting the right people at MHS per the district, they just didn't respond. There are some great teachers, but a lot of teachers who are waiting out their time until they get their good retirement package. And, the administration seems to have no control over the system that is MHS or the teachers; there is very little accountability. Very slow to react on everyone's part.
Middleton High School deserves 0 stars for special education programming. The staff are unresponsive to communication with parents, they don't understand (& seem not to care) about recognizing special education needs & how they manifest in students who are truly in need of extra care. It appears to be through the formal DPI grievance system that they are only minimally responsive to significant concerns. While Middleton HS may boast about their ratings for mainstream students, those students are seemingly unaware of how their school discriminates against their disabled peers.

Middleton High School as an outstanding special education department which is doing great things for my grand daughter.

Middleton is the best high school in the Madison area IMHO with perhaps the exception of Verona High School. We have two kids at Middleton - one who is about to graduate - and have been very impressed with the school's well thought out curriculum and student advisee program that prepares students at each stage of their high school experience. This begins with the freshman advisory program where students are assigned to a home room that is used to focus on individual needs, develop learning skills and to promote a learning community. As in any school, you will find a few, bad apple teachers, but overall they are very supportive of students and excellent at what they do. The other nice thing about Middleton Public Schools is that you avoid much of the negative politicization such as what occurs in the Madison School District. Middleton focuses on students first.
