District #348 Preschool for All will be conducting Child Find/Preschool Screenings for children ages 3 to 5 who are not yet enrolled in public schools and who are not kindergarten eligible.
The screening checks each child’s progress in hearing, vision, speech, language, and coordination skills. This will give parents a better idea of how their child is progressing at this very young age before they begin school. This screening program is free and parents will receive immediate feedback on how their child is developing. Head Start personnel will also be present to explain their program and services. Screenings will be held on March 28th, March 29th, and March 30th. The screening procedure takes about 45 minutes, and appointments must be made so that children do not have a long wait period.
Parents should call 618-262-4623 to make an appointment or to get more information.
MCES Kindergartners will NOT be in session on Monday, April 17th or Monday, May 1st to allow teachers to perform kindergarten screenings for next year's students.
This will NOT impact any other MCES students.

Red Ribbon Week - Dress Up Days
This year Mt. Carmel Elementary School would like to highlight our community partnerships that are helping meet the needs of our students. The Brown Bag Buddies program, run through the First Christian Church Disciples of Christ, is meeting the needs of our students by providing supplemental weekend nutrition items and snacks to Pre-Kindergarten - 2nd grade students.
This year MCES partnered with the High School Rotary program known as the Interact Club to help raise awareness on food insecurity. Senior members of the Interact Club read “Lulu and the Hunger Monster” to our students and the response was great. The referrals for the program went from 18 families being served to 32!
Our student’s had a chance to hear from high school students who they look up to that there is no shame in saying you need help, especially when you're hungry!
MCES would like to thank the Interact Club members, Jason Miller, Justus Groves, and Anthony Bleyer for reading the story and to our Brown Bag Buddies for stepping up year after year and meeting this need.
