WHY SHOULD STUDENTS TAKE THE MCA?
- Colleges & Universities can use MCA scores to place students into appropriate level classes. This can help students avoid needing to enroll in and pay for remedial/noncredit courses in college.
- Park Pride. Low MCA participation & scores impact our community. Prospective residents and business owners view published high school rankings which may include MCA data. We are better than the current data indicates. Let’s Prove It!
| |
-
For the love of food! When you complete the MCA you’ll be entered into a raffle to win a $25 Gift Card from your favorite restaurant (yes, you choose your favorite).
| -
Park Connections Pride party. The park connections class with highest participation will earn a celebration with treats.
| | | |
Showings this Thursday (3/21), Friday (3/22), & Saturday (3/23) @ 7pm
and this Sunday (3/24) @ 2pm

Supporting Students During Ramadan |
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting, prayer, reflection and community. This year, it will take place from March 10 to April 9. Practicing Muslim students will be fasting from dawn until dusk (approx. 5:30 a.m to 7:30 p.m). During their daily fasts, students will not partake in any food or beverage. Please be aware of what we are sharing with SLP staff about how they can provide support to students during this time:
-
Understanding and patience: Students may show signs of exhaustion, hunger and dehydration. Celebrations often involve gatherings and prayers late into the night, so it’s not unusual for students to be up past midnight for prayers and then get up at 3:30-4 a.m. to eat before dawn. Even students who do not fast may be tired as they may stay up late celebrating with their families.
- Diversity within diversity: There is diversity within diversity, and not everyone will observe in the same way. Do not ask why someone may choose not to fast. There are many reasons why someone might not fast - it is not appropriate to ask about this.
- Fasting: Educators may provide spaces for students to be away from others while eating and drinking is present. It is best to allow students a separate place.
- Prayer spaces: Help to direct students to designated prayer spaces. Fasting students may request a space for prayer, and they will need to face East. Students may pray five or more times per day.
- Acknowledgement: It’s also appropriate to say “Happy Ramadan, “Ramadan Kareem,” “Happy Mubarak,” “Ramadan Mubarak” if you wish to acknowledge the holiday.
