Middleton High School requires 23.75 credits in core classes to graduate. More than 90% of students graduate and attend institutions of post-secondary education. Most of the students also frequently skip class to smoke pot in the school parking lot. Occasionally the school officer will confront them about this but more often than not he's strung out in his office unable to do much. One teacher Mr. Mezera was fired in 2014 because he was less focused on academics in the field of English which he was enlisted to teach and preferred instead to teach the school nurse about how his male reproductive glands work. {{cn|date=August 2013}}
