The start of school is quickly approaching. As I told our faculty & staff earlier today, we have been hard at work this summer doing all we can to ensure that this next school year goes as smoothly as possible, is as effective as possible, and is as enjoyable as possible.
As we prepare for the school year, here is some important information.
Back-to-School Items
Back-to-School Bash: Please note the date and times of each back-to-school bash. This is where you will receive all the information for the school year. Please be there!
As you know we have grown, and as a result, we have completely reworked the bash format to better give you the information you need. There will be time to eat at food trucks, an opportunity to visit multiple information tables, and time to visit your student's classroom and hear from his/her teacher. The goal is for you to receive all the information you need and want.
You will receive a punch card that will be marked by someone at each information table you visit. Once completed and submitted, you will be entered to win a $100 gas card at the conclusion of your bash.

Extended Care: Extended care is available for students in PK-8th grade from 3:30 to 5:30. Program and pricing information is available on the school website. If you plan to have your student attend extended care, please complete the extended care contract before school begins. Click HERE for more information. Click HERE to view the application.
Lunches: Lunch will not be provided the first week of school. This means that every student will need to bring a sack lunch.
Student Medication: If your student will need to be administered prescription medication at school, we are required to have a Prescription Medication Authorization on file, signed by a doctor. Most doctor's offices have a 1-2 week turnaround time for these forms, so it is recommended that you begin that process now. Any medication should be brought to a nurse in its original packaging, accompanied by this form. The form can be found in Family Portal under Resource Documents.
General Items
Driveway Paving: We still need to raise quite a bit of money over the next several weeks to help cover some of the cost of this project. To those who have already given, thank you for your generosity. To those who are wanting to donate, you can do so HERE.
Fall Drama Production: We are so excited about this year’s production of Around the World in 80 Days! We are thrilled to be performing two shows on Saturday, September 28, 2024, at the Clayton Center for the Arts Flex Theater. Auditions are Wednesday, July 24th from 2:00pm-5:00pm in the Choir Room. Makeup auditions are Monday, July 29th from 3:00pm-5:00pm in the Choir Room.
Please fill out this Google Form by Monday, July 22nd. This form has all necessary information for the fall play. Come to auditions with a 30 second monologue fully prepared and memorized.
If you have any questions, please email Katie Jones at katie.jones@mcstn.org.
Student Emails: As noted in several previous emails from Mr. McIntyre, to ensure the security of our student accounts, their passwords to log into Google have changed this summer. If your child needs to log in to his or her MCS Google account, he or she can find the new login information in FACTS. To do so, click on this link, which should take you to their Student Tech Access Info, which can be found under Web Forms.
Dress Code: As you are shopping for school clothes, please keep our dress code in mind.
More detailed information about the start of school will be sent out next week.
