Rev track is currently down as they are updating their system. It should be up next week. You don't need to worry about making your payment at this time, but if you prefer to get it done you can bring cash or check to the office. If you have any questions please contact the office at secretaries@mgsredbirds.org or call 309-367-2361. I am sorry about the confusion. Thank you!

‼Attention incoming K families this post is for you‼
Start the year off with a Kindergarten Kickoff Social at Metamora Grade School playground Sunday, August 16th from 3:30-5PM.
This is a fantastic way to ease your littles into MGS with getting to know the playground and meeting some classmates before school starts! PTO will have a scavenger hunt, coloring pages, and small snack!

FYI - there is an issue with Skyward - please be patient when registering. If you run into an error give it a day or so. They are working on an update & it is taking longer than expected which is causing errors to occur.

It appears Skyward is performing a maintenance update today so registration will most likely not be available today. Continue to check back into Skyward to see if it is working. Sorry for the inconvenience.
