Be sure to connect and stay updated through Schoology! Our MRI Schoology page and each Teacher's Homeroom page has details about what's going on weekly. You can see lesson plans, homeroom news, child's grades and communicate with the teacher. Don't miss out! You can also set notifications to receive an alert when something is posted.

If you haven't updated your Annual Emergency information, please do so by clicking the link below. It's important that we have updated info for every child.

We are working to make improvements with parent drop-off. Some of our staff are having trouble getting into the parking lot. To help us, please do not come and sit in our lot prior to 8am. This will allow our staff to pull in, park and be ready for students.

• Unload 3 cars at a time. Students should walk on the sidewalk and enter through door #14. There will be staff members out back to monitor our students.

Please help us make pick-up smooth and safe for everyone! Want to help make parent pick-up smooth? Consider having your student ride the bus home.

• If you're picking up and it's a change - please contact the office with bus changes by NOON.

• If you're picking up daily and do not have a parent pick-up number, please request a form from the office and you will be given a pick-up number. THIS IS FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE PICKED UP EVERDAY.

• Please do not begin lining up until 3 pm. Please do not come and sit in our parking lot early - for AM drop-off or PM pick-up. This is a safety concern for our staff and students.

• Upon entering the back parking lot, vehicles will proceed around to the loading area. (marked by a star on map above).

• If the back parking lot is full, cars will be directed to line up at the middle school.

• As cars exit the parking lot, cars from the middle school will be told to advance to the MRI back parking lot.

• Families will remain in their cars.

• A staff member will be looking for the parent pick up number assigned to student.

• Staff members are REQUIRED to check IDs EVERYDAY.
