Mid-Del School District  The Mid-Del School District is a school district based in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area. It serves all of Midwest City and Del City, as well as a portion of Oklahoma City. As of 2007, the school district served more than 14,500 K-12 students. The school district has grown from four original schools to include 23 middle and elementary schools and three high schools at present. It also includes the Mid-Del Technology Center, the only designated technology center in the state that shares a school board with a public school district. The school district originated as a set of schools based solely in Midwest City, which consisted of prefabricated hutments with five teachers and 125 students. It originally included four schools, two of which were precursors to Sooner Elementary School and Soldier Creek Elementary School. A total of 1,250 students were enrolled in the second year of the school system. The first permanent school building was dedicated in 1944, after two years of using temporary buildings. It cost $314,000 and was funded through the Lanham Act and Federal Works Agency. The building today houses Jarman Middle School. Oscar Rose was an early superintendent of the school district and the namesake for Midwest City's community college, Rose State. The Mid-Del School District has a total of 23 public schools and a career technology school.
