This week, we want to pause and celebrate the MCS educators who shape our future every single day. Teaching is so much more than a job; it’s a calling, and we are grateful for the ones in our community.
To our teachers: We know you work unseen hours. We see the early mornings before the bell rings and the late nights grading papers. We appreciate the unwavering dedication it takes to answer questions on weekends from both parents and students. We see the immense resilience required to constantly adapt to new curriculums and navigate new mandates.
Yet, despite the challenges and demands, you continue to do it all while loving our students and guiding them through the true art of education.
Thank you for everything you do. Your dedication goes beyond the classroom walls and leaves a lifelong impact. You are seen, you are valued, and today (and every day), we celebrate you!
Thank you MCS teachers!!

Being a principal means being a mentor, a problem solver, a cheerleader, and the glue that holds a school community together. We see the early mornings, the late evenings, and the commitment to making sure every student succeeds.
We thank you for everything that you do!!!




We absolutely LOVE our bus drivers! 💛 They are so much more than just the people behind the wheel.
Often, a bus driver is the very first smiling face our students see to start their morning off right. Day in and day out, they navigate the roads to transport our students safely to and from school.
Their dedication doesn't stop at the final bell, either. You’ll constantly find them stepping up to help with after-school activities, late-evening sporting events, and busy weekend field trips.
Simply put: without them, our school corporation does not function. They are the driving force that keeps us moving!
Please join us in saying a massive THANK YOU to our incredible transportation team today.

At last week's school board meeting, we took a special Middlebury Moment to honor the incredible dedication and talent of the Northridge High School Girls and Boys Basketball teams.
Both squads had absolutely phenomenal runs this year, putting together some of the best seasons in our school's history! Witnessing their hard work, teamwork, and passion on the court has been an absolute thrill for our entire community.
Congratulations to our athletes, coaches, and everyone who supported them along the way. We are proud! 💚💛




Today, we want to take a moment to express our gratitude to our incredible administrative assistants. From keeping the administration center running smoothly to supporting everyone across the entire corporation, your hard work and dedication do not go unnoticed. We truly couldn't do what we do without your organizational skills, patience, endless support, and fun-loving personalities!
Thank you for everything you do to keep us moving forward! 👏✨


Our instrumental music department hosted its annual Pancake & Sausage Breakfast, and once again, the student performances were incredible. The talent and dedication on display never cease to amaze us!
Events like this wouldn’t be possible without the many volunteers and custodial staff who work behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly. We’re so grateful to everyone who came out to help and support our students.
Here are just a few of the amazing faces who made it all happen—thank you! 💙






The Middlebury Community Schools Board of Trustees has approved a naming rights agreement for the Northridge High School soccer facility, also frequently used for lacrosse. While the field itself will continue to be known as Todd Woodworth Field, the entire facility—including competition fields, concession and locker room building, press box, and practice areas—will now be referred to as the Teledata Athletic Complex.
This agreement reflects a new partnership between Teledata and Middlebury Community Schools, supporting the vision and direction of the school district. Teledata is a telecommunications and IT provider based in Goshen, specializing in cabling, fiber optics, and security systems for businesses and homes. Teledata has committed to a five-year financial partnership beginning in July 2026. MCS Superintendent Dr. Jayson Snyder said, “We’re truly grateful for our partnership with Teledata and their investment in our students, athletes, and facilities. Support like this helps us continue delivering exceptional opportunities while maintaining the high-quality environment our community expects.” Northridge High School Athletic Director Ryan Bales added, “We appreciate Teledata’s commitment to our athletic programs and student-athletes. This partnership will have a lasting impact on our facilities and the experiences we can provide for our community.”

Assistant Principals do so much more than handle discipline; they are mentors, cheerleaders, and safe spaces for our kids. Thank you for seeing the potential in every student, listening to their struggles, and guiding them toward success.
