Academics

Midland is part of the greater Adventist education system operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. It is under the direction of the Office of Education of the North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists, which began oversight of elementary and secondary education in 1872.[5][6]


Spiritual aspects

All students take religion classes each year that they are enrolled. These classes cover topics in biblical history and Christian and denominational doctrines. Instructors in other disciplines also begin each class period with prayer or a short devotional thought, many which encourage student input. Weekly, the entire student body gathers together in the auditorium for an hour-long chapel service. Outside the classrooms there is year-round spiritually oriented programming that relies on student involvement.

School dynamics

The school's primary goal is to provide education within a Christ-centered environment as to prepare its students for service to God and humanity. There are many ways in which students can get involved with the community through student community service programs.
