Welcome to Moundridge Schools
An anonymous threat was made referencing a possible shooting at MHS this morning. The security and safety of all students and staff of this community are of utmost importance to us. The Moundridge Police Department, McPherson County Sheriff and USD 423 are working closely on investigating this unfortunate threat. I want to offer you the option of picking up your student and/or calling the building office and giving permission for their release. I will keep you updated on this situation as I can.
George Leary, Superintendent

5/24/18 UPDATE:
The Moundridge Police Department has made an arrest in the case of threats made on Tuesday, May 22.
Through the course of investigation it was determined there was never a credible threat to students, staff, or the community of Moundridge. The case has been referred to the McPherson County Attorney's office and charges are pending.
I want to thank everyone who contributed to this investigation. The Moundridge Police Department, the McPherson County Sheriff's Office and the FBI worked collaboratively in the investigation.
USD 423 parents and families,
There has been a change to the end of the school year calendar. With so many teachers making room (and building changes), the Board of Education voted last night to end school on May 22nd. This will be a whole day, not a half day like was originally scheduled for the 24th. Thank you for your flexibility. We continue to have extra days in our calendar if still needed.
USD 423 is seeking information about potential students for a 4 year-old pre-school program and possibly a 3 year-old pre-school program that will be offered for students beginning in the fall of 2018. In order to ensure we have adequate staffing, supplies, and space, we need to hear from you!
Will your child be 3 or 4 by August 31, 2018? AND
Are you interested in enrolling your child in a USD 423 Preschool next fall?
If so, please complete this form and let us know! Thank you!
WILDCAT WEDNESDAYS
Wildcat Wednesdays are a new addition to USD 423 this year. Wildcat Wednesdays are afternoon teacher professional development dates that will result in early student dismissal times (1PM DISMISSAL) on at most, one Wednesday each month. Please take note of these Wednesday early dismissals with the first one taking place on October 10.
Buses will run following the 1pm dismissal on their normal routes.
