MCC Families,
We begin our MCA tests this week. You can help us by ensuring students get good rest, get a healthy breakfast, and encouraging your child to do their best. If you have a 7-11 student, please ensure they fully charge their Chromebook.
Testing week can add to stress in our children and we want to minimize that! We simply emphasize that we want our students take the test one question at a time and give it their best effort.
Each and every day we provide quality academics and opportunities to help build well rounded students ready for their next adventure when they graduate.
We have students with many talents! Test scores are an important measurement but do not define the big picture for us and they certainly do not define each individual. Help us encourage your children. Give them a hug or high 5 on the way out the door each morning and tell them "You got this!"
