MOUNT PARAN CHRISTIAN SCHOOL BACK-2-SCHOOL INFORMATION SERIES 2022

BACK-2-SCHOOL INFORMATION
SERVE SATURDAYS

MPCS offers service opportunities for our students, staff, and families through our Serve Saturdays.
The MPCS family will have the opportunity to serve a ministry with which we already partner on a regular basis. We volunteer one Saturday per month throughout the school year, culminating in the schoolwide spring Family Serve Day. The first serve day will be September 17. Signups will be posted after the start of school.
CULTURE FEST

Save the date for Culture Fest on Thursday, October 6. More information will come after the start of school.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

We are always looking for parents to engage in Bible studies, Serve Saturdays, chapels, Family Serve Day, and other groups on campus. For information on ways to connect, please contact the assistant head of school for Christian Life or fill out our volunteer form here.

PARENTEd. P.E.P. TALKS
Assistant Head of School for Christian Life Steve Kyle will host several opportunities for parents to engage with the school. These P.E.P. Talks (Parents Engaging Purposefully) are designed to help parents navigate the teen years. We require parents of rising sixth- or ninth-grade students to attend ONE of these sessions. 

If you’ve attended in the past, please do so again, as Mr. Kyle’s message will be different than previous sessions. All parents are welcome to attend. Lower school P.E.P. Talks are also open to all parents for great insight into the primary years. All events take place in the Murray Arts Center, Choral Rehearsal Room, unless indicated otherwise.  

FREE RIGHTNOW MEDIA ACCESS FOR ALL MPCS FAMILIES
MPCS is always looking for ways to serve and support our school community and encourage the integration of our faith.

This partnership is for the ENTIRE Mount Paran Christian School community, including students, staff, parents, alumni, and grandparents.
