Kindergarten Registration:

Greetings, MPS Families!

We are pleased to announce that Kindergarten Registration for the 2025-2026  school year opened on Monday, January 6, 2025. 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, 2020 are eligible to register for Kindergarten. If your child is not age eligible (born September 2, 2020 through December 31, 2020), 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 2038!


Drills:  Conducting emergency drills (fire, crisis, lockdown, etc.) is one of the most important ways we enhance our preparedness for students and staff during an emergency. Drills allow us to practice what we need to do when an emergency arises in our school. Earlier this week, Calf Pen Meadow School  conducted a lockdown drill. This was only a drill and was in accordance with the School Incident Management Protocols established by the district, in partnership with our local first responders.  I am pleased to report that the drill was a success. It was efficient and timely.  If you have any feedback please reach out to jwhitaker@milforded.org.    I want to thank our students and staff for their interest and participation in making our schools a safer place for learning. 

Congratulations to the CPM first grade students for their very successful community service project, “Souper Bowl” for the Purple Pantry.  Our school collected 368 non-perishable items to donate to the pantry!!!
