Hello All,
1. Thursday (evening) and Friday (morning) we will hold parent/teacher conferences. Thursday will be a 1 hour early dismissal, and Friday there is no school for students. We're hoping for a record turn out this year! Please help us out with that goal.
2. I have attached a link to our district calendar on the website below.

Have a good day,

Midwest Central staff got the opportunity to spend the second half of Friday doing some pretty cool professional training exercises... after being treated to a most delicious lunch!
A HUGE Thank You to everyone that helped make this possible!!!!





Hello Raiders,
We've had quite a few questions surrounding the P-EBT program. The district doesn't have any control over the program. We've been directed to have people call 1.800.678.5465(LINK) or going to the website for Illinois Link Cardholder (www.link.illinois.gov). The link below takes you to an FAQ for additional information. I hope this helps.

Student Council is sponsoring the dance tonight. Doors open at 6:00 PM. All students need to be picked up at 8:00 PM. Concessions will be sold. Cost to attend is $2.00.


Hello Raiders,
Two quick items:
1. Tomorrow, Friday, October 14th is 1/2 day early dismissal.
2. Summer P-EBT benefits for students enrolled in public school will be issued between October 11th and 21st, 2022. Summer 2022 P-EBT issuance will be $391 per eligible student. Because Midwest Central has the Community Eligibility Option all students enrolled last May will receive this benefit. This benefit is not something you or the district has applied for. It is a program we automatically qualify for based upon our participation in the National School Lunch Program. Benefits will be loaded to your existing P-EBT card.
Thank you,
Dr. Todd Hellrigel


The Lady Raiders will host Illini Central tonight starting at 6:00 PM.
Good luck ladies!!


8th Graders worked hard in Mrs. Keaschall's class creating their "We Can Do It" Rosie the Riveter murals. This was the perfect activity for setting goals for the quarter. Soon we will see if they reached their goals and set new ones for the next quarter.



This past weekend Ryan T was nominated for and participated in the 10th Annual Jr High Baseball All-State Showcase at the Future Champions Sport Complex in Jacksonville, IL. This showcase gives the top Junior High players in the state an opportunity to showcase their skills against other top players in Illinois!
Ryan competed on the Southwest team after leading the Raiders to a 13-5 finish. Congrats on a great season Ryan!


The Lady Raiders will host Havana tonight starting at 6:00 PM.
