School Overview

Mason County Intermediate School (MCIS), located on Clarks Run Road in Maysville, Kentucky, serves as a vital transition point in the Mason County School District’s academic structure. Typically housing students in the upper elementary grades (often grades 3–5), the school focuses on bridging the gap between foundational primary education and the more complex demands of middle school. The facility is designed to foster a supportive learning environment that emphasizes both core academic development and social-emotional growth during these formative developmental years.

As a cornerstone of the Maysville community, MCIS places a strong emphasis on student engagement, collaboration, and the integration of technology in the classroom. The school works closely with families and the broader Mason County district to ensure that students are prepared for the challenges of higher grade levels. Through a variety of extracurricular activities and a curriculum aligned with state standards, the school aims to cultivate a positive school culture where students are encouraged to develop critical thinking skills and build strong interpersonal relationships.
