Summer Golf Program
Fore! Look out for the return of the summer golf program! This program is called the “M.I.S. Country Club” in conjunction with the Kids Golf Foundation. This program will be for any 3rd through 5th grade student that attended Medinah Intermediate School during the 2024-2025 school year. This is a non-profit, one week program that promotes the game of golf, learning the skills needed to play the game, along with many life skills that coincide with golf.
The program is intended to give the students an opportunity to learn, practice, and appreciate the game of golf. Equipment will be provided at the clinic so there is no need to purchase or bring equipment to participate in the program.
The program leader will be Mr. Boeing (MIS Dean) and Miss Spencer (5th grade teacher at M.I.S.). We will explore Top Golf, Links and Tees, Salt Creek, and Medinah Intermediate School.
When: Monday, June 2nd and will run through Friday, June 6th.
Time: 9:00AM -12:00PM
Pick up: Parents/Guardians will be required to pick students up at 12:00PM, as transportation will not be provided.
Payment: PLEASE DO NOT TURN IN PAYMENT YET. There will be a $75 Registration Fee to participate in the program. Limit 15 participants or based on equipment availability. WHEN YOU GET THE ACCEPTANCE EMAIL WE WILL HAVE A LINK FOR THE ONLINE PAYMENT.

A message from Principal Mrs. Czarnecki
Dear MIS Families,
We’re so proud of all the hard work our students have shown so far this year—and we’re excited to finish the school year strong together! The next couple of months will be filled with important learning, fun activities, and many opportunities for your child to continue growing both academically and socially.
At MIS, we continue to encourage and model our Medinah Code of Conduct each day:
We are Safe
We are Caring
We are Respectful
We are Responsible
As always, your support from home helps us reinforce these important values, and we truly appreciate the teamwork between school and home.
Please continue to check your emails and school communication for upcoming events and important dates, as the end of the school year brings many exciting activities and celebrations.
