Plymouth and Adams Elementary 5th Grade Exhibitions celebrate the end of Elementary School and the Transition to Middle School!
For Plymouth and Adams Elementary 5th grade Exhibitions, students focused on world conflicts, designing action plans and offering creative solutions.
The intense 6-week process of preparing for Exhibition involved research, application, action, and reflection.
Each group worked with community members who served as mentors throughout their journey.
Family and community members were able to attend the Exhibition event allowing students the opportunity to share their projects and expertise. They truly showed how "actions make a difference in conflict and resolution." Great job!
Congratulations to 2023 National Chinese Speech Contest Honorable Mention Winner, Ruth Labarge!

Once school has ended for the year, Midland Public Schools will once again be offering the Summer eLearning Program. Through this program, online courses are available to high school students who wish to earn initial credit in select courses. If you are interested in Credit Recovery courses this year, please contact your building administration.
While being onsite is not a requirement for daily work or quizzes, tests and exams must be monitored. This can be by appointment onsite or by appointment virtually. Appointments will be scheduled with the teacher on duty between the hours of 9:00 am and 12:00 pm on Mondays - Thursdays unless other arrangements are made. Students should expect to invest 45-60 hours to complete each course but may work on their course at any place where they have an internet connection.
Courses will begin on June 5, 2023, and must be completed by August 4, 2023. Students may only register for one course at a time. The cost for each course is $150 for Standard Edgenuity courses (EDG - Edgenuity on course list) and $235 for Edgenuity Instructional Services courses (EDGIS - Edgenuity Instructional Services on course list) for Midland Public Schools students and $175 or $250 for students outside of the MPS district. Registration opens on April 24th. If you would like additional information or would like to register for a course, use this link: https://www.midlandps.org/district/summer-program
