MCA Weekly Wrap-Up!
Primary & KinderPrep Family News - March 1, 2019
Dear Families,
It may not look much like spring, but it's March, so we are going to think "spring" thoughts as we eagerly look forward to nicer weather on the way! It was another unexpectedly short week, but once again, we packed a lot of fun into it! Here a few highlights from this week!
- The Maranatha Association of Parents put on a phenomenal "Candyland" themed carnival last Sunday. This was a great time of fellowship, as well as an outreach for friends to learn more about Maranatha! Thank you, MAP parents!!!
- Maranatha welcomed a number of new families to both the Kindergarten Preview and our Move-Up Open House night.
- The Cat in the Hat was "in the house" for all the kindergarten festivities.
- Elementary classrooms celebrated Read Across America Day this Friday by having a special reading time in classrooms, and a read-aloud by an administrator in chapel this week.
- 6th grade girls had their first "GFC" (Girls for Christ) lunch meeting with parent volunteer Mrs. Cori Oglesby this week.
- Our WIN Enrichment group traveled to KU for the Engineering Expo on Monday.
- Our "Kind Kids" award winners finally had their celebration lunch at Pizza Street with Mrs. Thomas and myself.
Whew, I'm worn out just listing all the excitement from the last few days! It was so special to reflect this week on how blessed we are to have this family where we are always learning and growing together. Have a wonderful weekend!
Blessings!
Mrs. Howell

The time to re-enroll is now!!!
To re-enroll: Go to the MCA website at www.mca-eagles.org and click on the rectangle in the yellow header to begin the re-enrollment process. If you don’t see the yellow rectangle, go to the Family drop down menu at the top of the main page and select Re-enrollment. Click on Re-enroll now and begin. No enrollment code is necessary because the special re-enrollment discount for priority re-enrollment has already been worked into the enrollment page.
Great News – Don’t Delay: Priority Enrollment/ Re-enrollment is the opportunity that you have to enroll by March 31, 2019, and save some money on the Enrollment/ Re-enrollment fee per student.
Further Opportunities to Excel:
- For K-12 Students: (not International): If the full year’s tuition (2019-2020) is paid by April 15, 2019, there is a 3% tuition reduction. See the Business office to initiate this process.
- Referral Discount: $1000 per family that you refer, who enrolls full-time, for the entire school year.
- In Secondary: Only Re-enrolled students will be able to submit course requests and schedule for classes for the next school year. We plan to open course requests to students the week of April 15, 2019.
We are very excited about the new school year and want for you and your family to be a part. If you have any questions, please call (913) 631-0637. We are happy to assist you!
