Be sure to review your child’s Report Cards- celebrate their success, discuss challenges and set goals for the next 9 weeks of school.  

  • Remember- Morning School is available each morning starting at 7:15 with opportunities for working on HW, iReady goals, reading and enrichment.   

Save the Date for our annual Barn Bash Capital Campaign fundraiser on February 20.  Stay tuned for more information on this fun filled night that supports MACS building project and programs.  
 
Our Annual Halloween Parade is scheduled for Friday, October 30.  – Weather permitting 

  • VPK will start the parade at 8:30 and do the first loop around and then the rest of the school will follow at 8:40.   
  • All parking will be at the back of campus at the ballpark.   
  • The school parking lot will be available for parking AFTER 8:20.   
  • If you would like to sit to watch the parade, bring a lawn chair.   
  • Costumes MUST be school appropriate.  Fake blood, scary faces, and weapons are not allowed. This is a great opportunity to have fun and be creative.  Home crafted costumes are encouraged!
