MCP3 Staff News

Greetings MCP3 Team!

I hope this weekly newsletter finds you all doing well, rejuvenated from your Spring Break! I hope that everyone got to spend time for themselves doing what brings them joy, rejuvenation, and self-care!

As we welcome back our scholars let's ensure that we are being clear with our directions, taking time to re-RAP with them, and connect before we correct! The focus continues to be on using a 3:1 PDF ratio and ensuring our systems are being implemented with integrity. We are kicking off Quarter 4 and April with lots to look forward to.

Here are some important happenings and reminders:

MCP Staff Gallery Night - 4/16th 6:00-9:00

See the flyer below for more details about the All Staff Gallery Night- all staff are encouraged to participate and/or attend!
