Dear MCS Parents,

The MCS school year is in full swing! We are honored to serve your families and delighted to see our hallways filled with the joyFULL faces of our students.

The MCS Community includes not just our current families, but also important extended family members such as beloved grandparents. We know that grandparents often play a highly influential and positive role in our students' lives - from driving carpool and helping with homework to mentoring and care-giving. Grandparents can be tremendous role models for young people.

MCS offers a number of opportunities for grandparents to become involved in their grandchildren's education, and our hope is to build on this depth and legacy in the coming months. Some of our most faithful library volunteers, coaches, and Veterans' Day speakers in the past have been grandparents!

To that end, we invite you to fill out the GoogleForm with pertinent grandparent address information. Many of you provided grandparent information via RenWeb during enrollment, but some may have missed that opportunity.

We hope to communicate with MCS Grandparents regarding:
  • Special on-campus events such as Elementary Grandparents Day, Middle School Grandparents Day, Veterans Day Assembly
  • Broad MCS community events such as Fallapalooza, Spring Gala/Auction, Mariners Institute of the Arts programs
  • Key MCS stand alone communication such as 30 Stories/30 Years, Vision 2020 updates, and Maker Education news
  • Opportunities to support MCS Advancement through the Annual Fund or Fund-an-Item initiatives
  • Potential volunteer/mentorship roles in educational and/or extra-curricular programs
  • Invitations for social media communication
Our primary contact for shepherding MCS Grandparent volunteers is our new Director of Advancement Barbara O'Brian ( [email protected]). If your grandparent(s) would like to speak with someone at MCS directly about opportunities for involvement, please feel free to contact her at anytime.

Partnering with you,

Troy Moore
