Middletown Performance High School will expand to welcome its first ninth-grade class, creating new high school opportunities for families throughout the Middletown community. The expansion responds to growing demand for a structured, academically focused high school environment built on clear expectations, strong relationships, and visible leadership.

The ninth-grade program will extend the Performance Academies foundation into high school, providing students with small class sizes, individualized support, and core coursework aligned with Ohio graduation requirements. With an emphasis on college and career readiness, students will begin building a clear pathway toward postsecondary success while remaining in a supportive and consistent learning environment. Enrollment is now open for incoming ninth-grade students.
