School Fees

As we near the end of the 2023-24 school year, please remember to check if your child has any outstanding fees. Balances can be viewed by logging in to PowerSchool or PaySchools or calling our main office at (440.748.2305).


Full or partial payments can be made through the West main office during the school day or online through PaySchools (processing fees apply). Though unpaid fees carry over each year, action must be taken in order for your child to participate in end-of-year activities.

3rd Grade Hit the OST Out of the Park!

Using a baseball theme to build excitement, the third grade team has been gearing up for their Ohio State Tests. Students have put in hard work, supported by their teachers, to get ready for the assessments. This theme ties in seamlessly with their upcoming visit to Crushers Stadium, mirroring the students' enthusiasm to demonstrate their skills and succeed on the third-grade OST.


Our third graders will continue with their Math OST on April 30th and May 1st.


Good luck to all the students!

Lights, Camera, OST!

The fourth-grade team has been working hard to generate excitement for the Ohio State Tests. They decorated the common areas with movie-themed decorations, creating an atmosphere of anticipation and enthusiasm for all of the fourth graders to showcase their abilities.


In Miss Loudermilk's class, students have taken their efforts a step further by reviewing and practicing the skills they have acquired throughout the year. The class began to think about goals and what they mean. They watched fun videos on how to set goals and stick to them! Each student was asked to review their progress throughout the year and use that to help them create goals that would help them shine. One student’s goal says it all, “My goal is to do a nice job on the Ohio State test. I want to get a good score on the test. I can help by staying focused and trying my best!”


The students showcased their abilities during the ELA test this week and are excited the opportunity to shine like movie stars on the upcoming math tests! Our fourth graders will be taking their Math OST on May 2nd and May 3rd.

Elementary STEM Night

Midview East hosted an engaging and educational STEM night for students and families last night. The students dedicated themselves to crafting a mini putt-putt course that visitors enthusiastically experienced. Additionally, the event featured a variety of STEM activities, engaging presentations, and Invention Convention boards created by our talented West students. We hope that everyone had a fantastic time!
