2019-2020 Registration Information
REGISTRATION DATES:
K-8th grade students will need to be registered on Tuesday, August 6th from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm or on Wednesday, August 7th from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm at all Massac Unit #1 elementary/junior high buildings. Parents of new and returning students should register their students during this time.

During the summer, we will be transitioning our student management system from InformationNOW to a new system called Alma. Due to the scope of this project, we will be unable to offer online pre-registration for 2019-20 as we have the previous two summers. After this transition is complete, we will be able to offer online registration again for future school years. We apologize for this inconvenience.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS:
Parents encouraged to plan ahead for emergency situations
It is not too early to begin thinking about putting emergency procedures in place for your child should there be an early dismissal of students, without advanced knowledge. These dismissals might occur as a result of bad weather, a loss of electricity or water, a bomb threat, or excessive heat or cold within classrooms.
Sometimes the emergency may involve only one school, but most of the time, it is district wide. Later in the winter, weather conditions pose problems that may create a need for an early dismissal. When time allows and where contact with parents can be made, the parents of kindergarten children are notified first. Please ensure that the telephone number given on the first day is a reliable number and that numbers are updated with the school office as changes
