McPherson County Schools

The McPherson Co Improvement Club will have a meeting Wednesday, September 20 at 7 PM in the commons. Please plan to attend. If you are wondering what the MCIC does, we raise money for projects that the school otherwise are unable to budget for such as new equipment or microwaves etc. We also host and are financially responsible for the after prom party. Please plan to attend as this benefits all of our children. It literally takes a village to take care of all the school needs. You do not have to have children in school to participate. We welcome everyone. Questions? Contact Chad Fisher, Lana Watson, Andrea Blake, Toni Powers, or Jana Gragg. We look forward to seeing you Wednesday, September 20 at 7 PM in the High School commons.

Just a reminder the book fair will be open Monday, September 18th during Parent Teacher Conferences. Come check out the selection!

Due to multiple staff gone for professional developments we have some calendar changes towards the end of the month. September 22 there will be no school for the elementary students in K-6, teachers will have a work day. On September 29th, we will have a 1:00 dismissal. Please note these changes on your calendar.

McPherson County Schools' evening bus route will run as regularly scheduled. We have been in communication with the North Platte Police Department and have been informed that Cody Park is outside of the evacuation area and will be safe to drop our students off. IF the situation happens to change we will use social media and media services to communicate any necessary actions.

Monday, September 18th there is no school due to Parent-Teacher conferences from 1:00-6:00 p.m. Elementary please check your child's backpack for appointment times. If you are unable to attend, please contact your student(s) teacher(s) to schedule another conference time. The Book Fair will also be open during conferences. Have a great evening.

Due to a celebration in Cody Park today, September 13, 2023, we will move our drop off site across highway 83 in the parking lot beside the North Platte Transit building (1520 N Jeffers Street). This is south of the Armory building. Drop off will be the same time.

Don't forget picture day tomorrow! Proofs will be sent to your email to choose from and order.

Congratulations to Isaac Goosey who was voted as student school board representative. He will represent the student body at school board meetings.
