MPS schools that offer kindergarten and Head Start will be present so families can ask questions, learn about programs, and identify the best options for their children. Families will have the chance to speak directly with school staff and get help filling out enrollment forms. Interpreters will be available. Please note—according to Wisconsin law, children must complete five-year-old kindergarten before entering first grade.

MPS provides free breakfast and lunch for all students. Many schools have before- and after-school care to accommodate parents. Bus transportation is available; each school can provide information.

Head Start
The Head Start program promotes children's development through services that support early learning, health, and family well-being. This preschool program is available for families who meet income limits. Transportation is available.

Kindergarten
3-year-old Kindergarten: Limited programs are available at some schools. Children must turn 3 by September 1 to be eligible.
4-year-old Kindergarten: Programs are available at most schools across the district. Children must turn 4 by September 1 to be eligible.

The MAM Parents and Teachers Organization is one that you are already a member of simply by being a parent/guardian or loved one of a MAM student.

There are no financial dues to pay; all we ask is that you participate in any or all of the fundraisers, family activities and community building events through out the year. The "sprinkles' at MAM are mostly volunteer driven; reach out  anytime and find out how you can lend a hand or two!
