Here’s the MCS Roundup Plan for This Week
Muncie Community Schools (MCS) will be holding kindergarten roundup in each of its six elementary schools this week. The schedule and all info is posted on our Local News Page right now.
- Grissom Elementary: Wednesday, April 12, 3:30-5:30 p.m.
- West View Elementary: Wednesday, April 12, 4-6 p.m.

Children must be 5 years old on or before September 1 to be eligible for kindergarten. All of these roundups will coincide with registration for preschoolers through grade 5 and other events happening at the schools. The secondary schools will also be holding registration events for grades 6-12 next week according to the following schedule:
- Northside Middle School: Tuesday, April 11, 5-7 p.m.
- Southside Middle School: Thursday, April 13, 5-7 p.m.
- Muncie Central High School: Thursday, April 13, 4:30-7:30 p.m.
The quickest and easiest way for parents and guardians to enroll new or returning students to MCS is through its online system at EnrollinMCS.org. That process will begin Monday, April 10. By enrolling students early, parents and guardians make it easier for school principals to staff their buildings appropriately before the first day of school, which is set for August 8.
In order to expedite the registration process for those attending in-person registration events, parents should bring:
- Current identification
- Proof of residency
- Student’s birth certificate
- Student’s immunization records
