Would you like to honor one of your former teachers or fellow faculty members? Are you interested in supporting Midway Libraries? Well, now there is a way to honor former teachers and support the libraries. The Midway District Librarians have developed a program that allows you to contribute money to the libraries on behalf of a retired teacher. A plaque honoring the teacher will be placed in the school library where the teacher taught. Frequently asked questions about this program and information detailing how to nominate a teacher are below.

of Midway ISD.
What does it cost to establish a fund for a
teacher?
A $20.00 minimum is required to nominate someone and

where the teacher taught.
