  • Class elections have taken place, and the following students have been chosen as president of their respective classes: Cameron DeLapp (senior), Dominic Cala (junior), Kevin Jung (sophomore), Savannah Cooley (freshman). They will all serve on the Student-Faculty Council for the fall semester along with the two School Prefects and Libang Shi, who was elected by the senior class as the "junior-at-large" representative.


  • Mathematics as a Descriptive Language: Students in Chris Rea's Pre-calculus class have been tasked with developing mathematical descriptions of buildings on campus in the form of functions, graphs and t-tables. The aim is to make abstract ideas like "modeling polynomials and functions" more concrete by continuously relating these mathematical descriptions to real things--like the volume of space contained in a building.


  • Athletics: Next Wednesday, September 24th, Midland is hosting a friendly Valley (Santa Ynez High School and Dunn School) Cross-Country meet at 3:00 PM. See Midland's sports section online for a full schedule and updated photographs.


  • Faculty members Ben Munger and Don Redl are taking the top cross country runners today on a 4-day backpacking trip to the Hockett Meadow area of Sequoia National Park. The students are Colin Weaver '09, Ross Kellogg '09, Joey Hermosillo '09, Gus Dene '10, Sheridan Stegner '09, Patrick Holstein '09 and Beau Lino '09.


  • Midland's Fourth Annual Round-Up: All current families are invited to join us for this year's Round-Up on October 4-5. This is our first event on campus where families have a chance to participate in Midland activities, see their kids in action, meet other families and enjoy meals together. See the online invitation for more details and a schedule.
