Mokena Intermediate School

As of today, less than 50% of our returning students are registered for the upcoming school year. Please remember that all returning students must be registered in Skyward every year.

We appreciate your help in registering your child(ren) as soon as possible as we begin class placements and schedule creation. This also ensures we have the most up to date student counts for the 2026-2027 school year as we order supplies and materials and evaluate staffing needs.

To register, choose the registration tile on your Skyward Family Access dashboard for each enrolled child. More information can be found at https://sites.google.com/mokena159.org/enrollment-and-registration/home.

Also, please help us in spreading the word that enrollment is open for new students in Kindergarten through 8th Grade as well. If you know any families that are new to the district or have a new Kindergartener, please let them know to go to our website to start the enrollment process today!

The MIS PBIS Celebration was a huge success yesterday! The weather was perfect and so were the students. The day included relay races, putt putt, Wii, board games, a picnic lunch, and of course, our Kickball Tournament. Congratulations to Mrs. Collins (4th grade) and Mr. Roberts (5th grade) for winning the championships. The day concluded with a visit from the ice cream truck!
