Special Education

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Welcome to a new and exciting school year at Midfield City Schools!

On behalf of the Special Education Department, I am pleased to extend a warm welcome to all our new and returning families. At Midfield, we are deeply committed to providing high-quality educational experiences tailored to meet the unique needs of every learner. Our goal is to foster academic growth, independence, and confidence by offering individualized supports in inclusive, nurturing, and empowering environments.

We believe that collaboration between families, educators, and community members is the key to student success. As partners in your child’s education, we value your input, advocacy, and trust. Together, we can build strong foundations that promote lifelong learning and achievement.

Our team of highly qualified special education teachers, related service providers, and support staff is dedicated to ensuring each student receives the tools, services, and opportunities needed to reach their full potential. Whether your child is new to special education or continuing services, we are here to support you every step of the way.

Please feel free to reach out to our department with any questions, concerns, or feedback. We look forward to working with you and celebrating the many accomplishments to come.

With Midfield Pride,

Stephanie Matthews                                         Director of Special Education

    Teachers, parents, physicians, therapists, etc. who have concerns with a student’s developmental or academic progress can request a “Referral” to the school system to determine if the student needs specialized instruction.
