About MTPS

The Middletown Township Public School District will work as a united community to empower each student by providing an engaging, inclusive, and safe educational environment. The District will utilize available resources, responsibly and effectively, to enable students to reach their full potential as life-long learners and responsible citizens. The District will encourage students to develop their imagination and creativity, aspire to greatness, value diverse perspectives, and demonstrate cultural competence as global citizens to prepare for future academic, career, and personal success.

In order to prepare our students for the ever-increasing demand for a literate, technology- oriented work force, the Middletown Township Public School District embraces an instructional philosophy that is student-centered, inquiry-based, and that differentiates instruction based on students’ individual abilities.

Teachers, as facilitators of lifelong learning, challenge students by providing an environment in which the students become active participants engaged in working together on projects and in solving problems that involve or simulate authentic data and events.

Students learn to value a variety of different approaches and are taught to take responsibility for their own meaningful learning as they become more adept at communicating their reasoning and in asking questions to help clarify their thinking and that of their classmates.
