A Message from Ms. Peterson
Hello MCP3 Families!
MCP3 has had a strong start to our week!
It is DOE (Declaration of Excellence) week! MCP's Declaration of Excellence Week is a time to celebrate the bedrock of our organization, the Declaration of Excellence (DOE). During this week, we encourage every member of the MCP family to reconnect with the essence of our commitment to teaching and learning. It's a week where we revisit the core values that drive us and the reasons we are all part of this incredible journey. Through introducing and practicing the first stanza of the DOE with our K3 scholars and sharing on Dojo, we'll come together to honor our DOE and reinforce the passion that fuels our dedication to education. Be sure to check out the videos on the class dojo stories! MCP3 will also have our first assembly tomorrow.
Reminder: There is No School for scholars on Friday. This is a Staff In-service day.
School Picture Day is Coming!
Picture day is Monday, October 9th. Scholars must wear their MCP3 uniform. Be on the lookout for information regarding purchasing photos.
**Dress Down Day will be October 10th- due to picture day being on the 2nd Monday of the month.
Billing/Payment Information
Our MCP3 payment policy states that payment must be made in advance of services. Be sure to make your payment on time so that your scholars' seat remains in good standing with our program. Families that have not made a payment will receive a bill in folders on Monday.
The most recent invoice will include all aftercare fees since the beginning of the year.
Aftercare Information
Scholars must be signed up for our aftercare program which runs from 3:30-5:30 in order to attend. Our aftercare program is an additional fee of $4.00 an hour. Scholars that are picked up after 5:30 are charged $1.00 a minute as a late charge. If a scholar stays for aftercare and is not signed up they will be charged $1.00 a minute.
Please reach out to our Office Manager Ms. Perine by emailing cassandra.perine@mkeprep.com or calling our office 414-264-6007 with any questions or concerns related to your payment or enrollment.
