The Admiral Squad

Posted on: September 8, 2022

Middletown City School District is working to address the shortage of Black males in education. This week we are introducing The Admiral Squad, an affinity group for Black males in our district. The Admiral Squad will inspire more Black males to enter the education profession while giving support to one another and all Middies.

Over the next five hiring seasons, our goal is to hire 25 Black male classroom teachers. We've been working with Mount St. Joseph University, Wright State University, Central State University, Sinclair Community College, University of Dayton, and more. 

We look forward to sharing out more about this group and what they are doing for our district. Make sure to follow them on Twitter and Instagram
