Thought of the Week
We had a great first day of school! Students came in excited to see their friends and favorite teachers. Everyone seemed to jump right back into the Midwest Academy routine. We were glad to see that the construction going on did not distract from classes. 

We also had a visit from the Carmel schools staff and they encouraged us to remind everyone to sign up for IEP/ISP discussions early in the year before their schedules start to fill up. If you have any needs, please contact your child's mentor, a member of the leadership team or myself.  One of us will be able to help. 

Have a great week!

Gala Information


The Gala Committee has been hard at work to make the 9th Annual Midwest  Academy Gala a success. Last fall, with the help of many Midwest Academy parents and staff,  we raised over $200,000. This year's Gala will be held on Friday, October 27 at the Ritz Charles in Carmel. We are always in need of volunteers to help with various tasks.  If you would like to learn more about areas where you can help, please email Lauren Scott at  lscott@mymwa.org

Many families have asked about making carpooling arrangements. Midwest has partnered with the Central Indiana Regional Transportation Authority (CIRTA) to offer CIRTA's Commuter Connect School Pool online tool to help Midwest families connect with each other to make carpool arrangements.
