The calendar page also says the Board does not hold regular meetings in July and August. All meetings are livestreamed and archived on the district’s Middletown Stream YouTube channel. Always verify the current posting because dates, locations, public access details and special meetings can change.

Parent portal

PowerSchool Parent Portal, Annual Update, Grades, Attendance and Assignments

PowerSchool is the district’s electronic student information system. The PowerSchool Student and Parent Portal gives parents, guardians and students access to real-time information including attendance, grades, detailed assignment descriptions, school bulletins and personal messages from teachers.

At the start of each school year, families are asked to update important information and complete annual sign-offs inside PowerSchool/Parent Portal. The district says families are encouraged to complete this information before the first day of school.

Login safety rule: Use the district-linked PowerSchool page before entering credentials. If locked out, contact your child’s school using the official contact list.
Communication

ParentSquare, Alerts, Daily Digest and School Communication

Middletown Public Schools uses ParentSquare for school communication, primarily through email, text and app notifications. ParentSquare accounts are generated using preferred email address and phone number as indicated through PowerSchool Parent Portal.

ParentSquare can help families receive messages, choose immediate notifications or daily digest, communicate in a preferred language, direct message teachers and staff, sign forms and permission slips, and receive school updates from desktop or mobile device.

Parents/guardians

Use ParentSquare for school messages, alerts, teacher communication and parent-teacher conference signups.

Community groups

Community members can sign up for certain ParentSquare community groups, including MPS Alerts and MPS News.

Emergency closings

MPS Alerts are recommended for emergency closings and delays for all Middletown Public Schools.

Preference updates

Keep phone and email current in PowerSchool so ParentSquare notifications reach you.

Transportation

Middletown Transportation, DATTCO Bus Routes and My Ride K-12

Middletown Public Schools uses DATTCO to transport students to and from school. The transportation page lists DATTCO at 860-635-8234 for bus status and location questions. For other transportation issues, the MPS transportation office is listed at 860-638-1418.

The My Ride K-12 app provides secure access to a child’s bus schedule and routing information, which can include bus stop, route and bus number. Before using it, gather the child’s date of birth and student ID number. The district says the student ID can be found in PowerSchool Parent Portal.

Schools and directories

Middletown School Directory and When to Call the School Office

The official District and School Directories page lists elementary schools, Beman Middle School, Middletown High School and Central Office contacts. For daily student needs, the school office is often faster than Central Office or the Board of Education.

Privacy note: For IEP, PPT, evaluation, medical, disability, discipline or special education records, use official district or school channels. Do not send private documents through unrelated websites.
Closings and safety

Closings, Delays, ParentSquare Alerts and Say Something Safety Reporting

The Parent & Family Info Hub links school-year resources such as closings and delays, PowerSchool, ParentSquare, academic calendar, school hours, meals, handbooks and transportation. For weather or emergency updates, use official MPS communication routes and ParentSquare.

Middletown Public Schools has adopted the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System, which allows secure anonymous safety concerns to be submitted when someone may hurt themselves or others. If someone is in imminent danger, call 911 immediately.

Emergency rule: A website guide is not emergency help. Call 911 for immediate danger, urgent threats or active emergencies.
Video and livestream

Middletown BOE Meeting Video and Middletown Stream

Regular board meetings are livestreamed and archived on Middletown Stream. Video is useful for hearing discussion, but BoardBook agendas and minutes are better for official record research.
