Welcome to the Momence Community Unit School District and our website. It is an honor and privilege to serve as superintendent of MCUSD#1.

In the Momence community, we take pride in our diversity, our excellent quality of life, and the success of our local schools. Our district is committed to bringing out the best in each and every child and recognizes that strong schools are the foundation of a strong community. We believe in the extraordinary potential of all of our more than 1,000 students and are committed to meeting their individual needs. Our work together requires teamwork, dedication and collaboration.

That collaboration extends beyond our school district staff and students to the entire community. This school year the district will continue our strategic planning process, and plan to engage the community in our vision, which will guide us on our journey. We are very proud of the accomplishments of our students and staff, and with the help and support of our community look forward to creating new levels of greatness. I look forward to working with all members of our school and community family as we continue to make strides in the education of our young people! I invite you to join our journey toward excellence.

If you have any questions, or if we can be of assistance, please feel free to call us at 815-472-3501.

Yours in education,
Mr. Shannon M. Anderson
Superintendent of Schools
