On Thursday, October 10, the MICDS campus was abuzz with visitors learning about all the independent secondary school options in St. Louis. MICDS is a member of the Independent Schools of St. Louis (ISSL), a nonprofit professional association of 43 elementary and secondary schools. Each year, the organization sponsors Secondary School Night, an opportunity to learn about independent secondary schools in the greater St. Louis area. This year, MICDS welcomed over 20 schools to campus. Families visited an open house information session in the McDonnell Gym before school-specific information sessions. We hosted our MICDS session in Orthwein Theatre, with brief remarks from Head of School Jay Rainey and Director of Enrollment Management Eric Brunt. A panel of students, three seniors and two 8th graders, spoke about their MICDS experience and answered questions from the audience. Our Open House is coming up on October 19. Please encourage your friends and family to visit!
