Hello Middletown Community,
The 2026-27 school year marks a historic milestone for the Middletown Area School District as we open the doors to Middletown Area Primary School for grades K-3 and the newly configured Reid Elementary School for grades 4 and 5. These learning environments represent far more than new buildings—they reflect our community's investment in our children's future and learning opportunities for generations of Blue Raiders to come.
As many of you may know, I am a proud 1990 MAHS graduate, and for more than three decades, I have had the privilege to serve the District in various capacities. These roles include being a parent, coach, teacher, principal, assistant superintendent, and this year, starting my sixth year as superintendent. I’ve seen firsthand what makes Middletown great, and while a new chapter in the District’s history has begun, my commitment remains the same: to lead with Raider Pride and ensure that “Every Student, Every Day” is the District’s primary focus.
The District also remains committed to academic excellence, maintaining a safe learning environment, and partnering with families and the community to help our students grow into the best versions of themselves.
Thank you for your continued trust in me to lead, and I look forward to a new and exciting school year while honoring the proud traditions that Middletown has always been known for.
With Raider Pride,
Dr. Chelton Hunter
Superintendent of Schools
Middletown Area School District
