The Beatles formed in 1960 and steadily grew in popularity in the their native Liverpool and—quickly—worldwide. An official fan club was formed in the early 1960s and the club’s best-known secretary was Freda Kelly who held the position from 1962-1972. In her time as secretary, Kelly helped answer letters that included extravagant requests from the band like locks of hair and for band member Ringo Starr to sleep on a pillowcase the fan sent. Fan club merchandise ranged from small items like buttons to larger mementos like exclusive albums. The Beatles enjoyed remarkable success in their ten-year run and broke up in 1970. The fan club was dissolved in 1972.

The quote featured here—said by John F. Kennedy while serving as a Massachusetts senator in response to being honored by the National Conference for Community and Justice for his commitment to anti-bias work—was never actually said by Dante. It is most likely a loose reinterpretation of Dante’s Inferno, from The Divine Comedy. Dante Alighieri was born in Florence, Italy in 1256 and wrote The Divine Comedy from 1307 to 1321; the work has since become one of the world’s most well-known pieces of poetry.

An American historian and author, George McGovern was one of the first politicians to speak out publicly against America's growing involvement in Vietnam. His platform during the 1972 presidential campaign included a comprehensive plan to end the war in Vietnam, a substantial cut in federal defense spending, and a "demogrant" program—which sought to replace inflated welfare bureaucracies with a pledge to give every American citizen $1,000. McGovern's "demogrant" program was dropped from his platform in August of that year after it was severely criticized as a "liberal giveaway." Although McGovern captured the votes of activists and reform liberals, his opponent, Republican incumbent Richard Nixon, managed to defeat McGovern in one of the biggest landslides in American history.

Midpark High School athletic teams were known as the Meteors and the school’s colors were orange and brown.

At the start of the 2013–14 school year, the Midpark building became Middleburg Heights Junior High School for 7th–9th grade students. 

In August 2018, the building was once again changed to Berea–Midpark Middle School for 5th-8th grade students, while ninth graders were moved to Berea–Midpark High School.
