Midway Elementary has two of the best playgrounds in DesMoines! A fantastic overall facility, and sits right next-door to Mt. Rainer HS's facility,track, pools, gym, tennis courts & more.

The professional teachers, faith based education and the community feel on the campus is reassuring to me as a mom. I feel the education is superior and the athletic program is competitive.

Overall a great high school. Lots of excellent teachers - there are a few really bad teachers (but…read moreI'm sure that's the case anywhere). Office Staff/Administrators/Counselors all very accessible and helpful. They do a great job of having all school activities for both students and parents. They do have a FWPD officer on site however there is not a lot of drug/violence on campus that I see (especially compared to other FW High Schools).
