Good Afternoon MCS Families,
Every year MCS collects Student Activity Fees to cover the cost of in school student experiences, field trips, and materials. Last year, Technology Fees were also collected separately in Middle School. The purpose of this communication is to explain a shift in the fee structure for the 2016-2017 school year. This year we desire to truly have one fee collected that covers all needs for the general student population in an effort to not have to come back to you for additional monies for materials during the year. From now on the title of this will be "Student Fees." As normal, Student Fees will be different for each grade level given the experiences planned for that grade level. All of the experiences planned for the 2016-2017 school year closely mirror the grade level experiences of the 2015-2016 school year. Student Fees will be drafted through FACTS with a deadline of October 31st. The MCS Finance Department can break the payment into a September and October draft if desired.
Student Fees will cover:
- Student Tech Fee (Middle School 1:1 iPads, NEW THIS YEAR 4th/5th Learn Forward iPads, TK-3rd iPad Classroom Access, Apps, eTextbooks and subscription services)
- Field Trips (Off campus entry fees and transportation) Click here to view by grade level
- In-School Experiences (Assemblies, Chapels, Spiritual Emphasis Week, Virtual Field Trips, Enrichment Clubs, In-school and After School Events)
