We are excited to offer a great opportunity to our Raider athletes in middle school and high school...a NO COST sports physical!!! If your child is entering 6th grade or 9th grade, he/she will need a complete physical from your doctor’s office. The complete physical will also serve as their sports physical.
A HUGE thank you goes out to Erika Hunter, Jesse Harbourn, Kali Troxell, Mason District Hospital, Manito Medical Associates, Nurse Richardson, and Nurse Monroe for making this a possibility!
Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are encouraged using the sign-up genius information on the flyer attached.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Day! Thank you to our teachers for being a positive role model, sparking imagination, and encouraging our students to become the best versions of themselves.
On Saturday Midwest Central's 7th grade basketball coach Jason Proehl was honored by the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association (IBCA) as District 12's 7AA Coach of the Year. Coach Proehl led the 7th grade Raiders to a boys school record 23 wins which included a regional championship, a sectional championship, and an appearance in the 7AA state tournament Elite 8 for the first time in over 20 years. Congratulations on a fantastic season to the Raiders and Coach Proehl!

The Stand For the Silent Officers are spreading the message of "Kindness" in the Middle School Building. They painted rocks with encouraging messages on them and hid them throughout the building. If a student finds a rock they are given a Stand For the Silent bracelet along with a candy treat!
Please note - We made a change to the 2024-25 school year calendar due to a conflict with Homecoming.
Instead of no school on February 7, 2025 for Teacher Institute, we will have no school on February 14th.
Below is a copy of the new calendar.
Hope to see you at the Spring Concert!

Last night the MCMS Scholastic Bowl season came to an end with the Regionals in Virginia. Six different people answered correctly in the team effort against Lewistown and Virginia. Mr. Bernhardt is happy with the growth from the beginning of the year in which students are answering questions more confidently. The top three scorers of the year were Cozy Marté with 15 toss ups answered, Leelinn Danner with 24, and Emily Pettijohn leading with 30 answered correctly. Now it’s time to enjoy the end of year party and match against the parents!
Scholastic Bowl is competing in regionals tonight at Virginia.
Goooooooooo Raiders!!!!!
