We wish to remind everyone to be mindful of parking in the correct locations when visiting our schools. Areas designated for handicapped parking are clearly marked with signage and/or blue stripes. Please do not park in those areas unless you need handicapped parking access. The MCS Police Department has the authority to ticket those who fail to comply with this request. We must work together to provide an opportunity for all MCS students and community members to enter and exit buildings and parking lots in a safe manner. We will support our officers who work to enforce these expectations. Let's be respectful of all individuals and set a positive example for our students!

8th grade Washington DC trip update - Due to this being the first year we have used online registration, we just became aware of an issue in the past two days. We currently have enough people signed up for the trip that we have completely filled two buses. However, we have not quite reached the number we need to add a third bus. We are VERY confident that will happen. People who are attempting to sign up are receiving a message that the trip is sold out and asking if they want to join the Wait List. Please go ahead and join that Wait List. As soon as we hit the number to add a third bus, everyone on the Wait List will receive an email invitation to join the trip. Sorry for the confusion. Again, questions may be directed to Mr. Sam Miller at millers1@mcsin-k12.org and the link to register is: https://www.classictoursinc.com/find-your-school
Please see this important information regarding price changes to ala cart items in the cafeterias:
