Cabell Midland High School is a four-year high school located in Ona, West Virginia. The school's name is derived from two sources: "Cabell" for the county in which it is located, and "Midland" for the famous Midland Trail.[citation needed][dubious – discuss]

The design received an Honor Award for Architectural Excellence from the West Virginia Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA-WV) in 1995.[citation needed] The temporary name of the school during the planning stages was Cabell East High School, but after asking for input and ideas from the public, the official name of Cabell Midland High School was later decided on by the Cabell County Board of Education.
