Mission:  Midland Park is a Junior/Senior High School encompassing grades seven through 12. It is also home to the Bergen County Secondary Hearing Impaired Program; graduating S.H.I.P. students receive a Midland Park diploma. All S.H.I.P. students are included in Midland Park's Annual Data Report. Because these students are all special education students, any "percentaging" of special education students at Midland Park leads to a high number. However, Midland Park schools are dedicated to providing an educational program that meets the individual academic, intellectual, social, and emotional needs of all its students. The focus of the program is to guide students toward thorough mastery in areas of knowledge and toward the ability to demonstrate essential skills. Further, the program is geared to enable students to use their minds well, guide students towards an understanding that all forms of inequity are unacceptable in our society, and facilitate their becoming open-minded and cooperative, caring and socially responsible, active and reliable citizens of their community, their country, and their world. This is accomplished through both the example and the efforts of a well-trained, continually enhanced, and dedicated staff and administrative team acting cooperatively with parents and community members in a school that honors diversity and is committed to non-discriminatory and inclusive practices, policies, and pedagogies which explicitly challenge all forms of inequity, inequality, racism, classism, and discrimination. The school environment is learner-centered, and through unanxious expectation, trust, and decency, offers many opportunities for all students to discover and construct meaning from their own experiences.
