Dear Families,

I hope everyone is staying warm during this cold weather!  Thank you to our fourth and fifth grade students for our band and strings concert this week - it was great to see you all up on the Jonathan Law stage with your peers from across the district!  Thank you to Mr. Boots for your leadership and to all our families and the Milford Board of Education for your support of music education! 

Next month, all 5th grade Spanish classes will have the opportunity to showcase their language skills through the AAPPL proficiency assessment. We are excited to offer this experience at the elementary level as a meaningful way to celebrate our students’ growing confidence and progress in Spanish. This work is a direct reflection of the engaging, student-centered instruction taking place each day. Thank you to Señora Gonzalez for creating a vibrant language lab where learning a second language is interactive, joyful, and fun—her ability to connect with students and bring language to life is truly something to celebrate!

Stay Warm, Mrs. Gail Krois

Food To Kids is an organization whose mission is to provide free meals to families of children who attend local schools.  If you are interested in learning more about this program or have any additional needs that we might be able to help with, please reach out to our Social Worker Jenna Stanczyk at jstanczyk@milforded.org or our School Counselor Brittany Smith at brittanysmith@milforded.org.

Greetings, MPS Families!

We are pleased to announce that Kindergarten Registration for the 2026-2027  school year opened on Monday, January 12, 2026. If you have a child who will be starting Kindergarten in the fall, registration information will be posted to the district website www.milforded.org.  You must register your child for Kindergarten at the school determined by your street address, unless placed by Pupil Personnel Services.  School/Street Assignments are available on the district website under “District Information.”

Children born on or before  September 1, 2021 are eligible to register for Kindergarten. If your child is not age eligible (born September 2, 2021 through December 31, 2021), please use the online registration form to request a waiver.   

Any current MPS Preschool or Ready To Learn (RTL) students will not need to complete an online registration form. However, we ask that you complete the Kindergarten Notification Form located in PowerSchool.

If you need assistance with the registration portal,  please contact the main office of your district assigned school. School contact information can be found on the district website under “ Schools.” 

We are excited for your children to join us!  Fully registered families, please be on the lookout for more information from your school’s Principal about an in person kindergarten event in the spring.  In the meantime, click here for a sneak peek of what to expect in Kindergarten!  

We look forward to welcoming the Class of 2039!

Our latest CCC Newsletter is out, and it’s filled with fun, enriching opportunities for families this winter! From chances to explore summer camp options, to free virtual learning experiences that build confidence and life skills, to music, movement, science, and seasonal community fun—there’s truly something for everyone.

We’ve shared just a few highlights, but there’s much more to discover. Be sure to visit the CCC webpage, to explore links to local community providers offering valuable programs, events, and resources for families.

We hope you’ll take a few minutes to check it out and find something that sparks your family’s interest!

Please remember to send your child in with warm weather wear as we still like to get outside for recess as much as possible.  Please take a moment to label hats, gloves and coats - so that if items are misplaced we can get them back to you and your child! We do have a number of coats and sweatshirts in our lost and found, please reach out if there is something that you are missing.
