Thank you to everyone that participated in Hat Day! We raised a total of $525.00 to donate to autism!

MPC's Wear a Hat Day raised $249 today to donate to tomorrow's Autism Walk. Great job and thanks to everyone for their donations!


The Millstadt School District recently received a donation in the amount of $9350 from the Millstadt Optimist Club. The donation will be used specifically for our District's teachers to purchase items to benefit their students. The teachers are thrilled with this generous donation and have already started to work on their "wish lists"!
We are so thankful and appreciative for the continued support from community organizations like the Millstadt Optimist Club.
Once again, THANK YOU to the Millstadt Optimist Club.

Just a reminder to parents who have a kindergartener starting this fall:
Be sure to have registration paperwork to the Primary Center before Feb. 14. If you have not already received a registration packet, it can be found on the school website. Completed paperwork should be sent to MPC electronically if possible to Janice Seidlitz. Her email address is on the registration packet.
Scanned or pictures of documentation is acceptable.
Please call Janice at 618-476-7100 ext. 1021 if you have any questions or need to pick up or drop off hard copies.
Also, if you have a student who will turn 4 by Sept. 1 and are interested in our Pre-K program, please contact the MPC office.
Thanks.

The location of tonight's basketball game has changed.
The game will be played at ICS.
Players, bring both uniforms.
The bus leaves at 5:30.

Millstadt Primary Center is holding preschool screenings Friday, January 14, during the school day for any child ages 2.5-5 years old at this time. Please call 618-476-7100 to make an appointment for a screening. Screenings will give families an idea of what to work on with their children for their age, as well as identify if there is a need for additional services. Residents of Millstadt do have access to free ECC/PreK programming, if the student qualifies.

Due to limited seating capacity, only parents, siblings, and grandparents of players and cheerleaders are invited to attend the basketball game on Friday, January 7th. Seventh grade players and family members are asked to please leave when their game ends to open up more seats for 8th grade families.
There will be NO student section.

Does anyone have an old walker they aren't using that they would be willing to donate to the Primary Center? We have some students who could use some help with roller skating during PE. If you would like to donate one please contact Ed Emge at 476-7100 ext. 1031 or email at eemge@mccsd160.com. Thanks.
