MCA Weekly Wrap-Up!
Primary & KinderPrep Family News - August 23, 2019
Dear Families,
What a great first full week of school we had this week! We are thankful for so much sunshine as we have had lots of opportunities for outside recess. Students are already demonstrating SOAR expectations, making new friends, and getting engaged in high-level thinking in their classrooms! They have even had the opportunity already to be leaders in chapel during our worship time. We had a wonderful time of fellowship with families on Thursday night at our Back-to-School Night, and we look forward to continuing the partnership with families throughout the coming year!
Enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend, and make some memories as a family! We are already looking forward to next week!
Blessings!
Mrs. Howell

Wizard of Oz Auditions
This year our school musical will be the Wizard of Oz, and there are a number of roles for younger children! Please see the audition information below, and click on the button for forms and more details! All forms MUST be turned in when you audition!!!
AUDITIONS – Each elementary student who wants to be a part of the musical must come to auditions on Thursday, August 29, 2019 from 3:30-5:00, at the south campus, in the Eagle Eatery. It is not necessary for them to come with a song or monologue prepared, since most of the larger roles will be assigned to the high school students. The elementary kids will learn a song that will be sung in small groups, and they will learn a simple choreography sequence. Please have them wear shoes and clothes they can move-in comfortably. Mindy has vast experience working with children of all ages, and she will do her best to make this a fun, non-threatening experience for each child.
If your child is planning to audition, please send an email to Mrs. Morken at
morkenb@ma-kc.org so that we will know how many kids to expect.
