Principal's Note
The highlight of springtime at MCA is finally here. We are so excited for the Experience Maranatha event happening tomorrow, Friday, May 15. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to connect as a community and celebrate the incredible hard work our students have poured into our fine arts programs this year. Whether your student is involved in music, visual arts, or our many performances, we look forward to seeing the fruits of their hard work this year. Please join us as we support their God-given talents and the creativity that makes MCA such a special place.

Mustang Moments: Band and Orchestra Grade Glimpse
Starting in 5th grade, students can develop their God-given talents by signing up for Band, Orchestra, or Choir. By seeing these classes in action today, our 4th graders were able to envision themselves in the ensemble, and we look forward to seeing how they will use their gifts to glorify Him through music in the years to come!
Experience Maranatha - May 15
Experience Maranatha is right around the corner, and we are looking forward to a great day celebrating the Arts within our school community. This is always a special opportunity to showcase the many gifts and talents of our students, and we are excited to see their hard work on display throughout the day.
Parents/special guests will check out middle school students in the sanctuary at the conclusion of the Upper School (MS & HS) Choir Performance, approximately at 12:00 pm. The adult checking out students will need to let the teacher know if the student will be leaving campus with them.
Need to check out before the Upper School Choir Performance (10:45 am)?
If, for any reason, a middle school student needs to be checked out prior to 10:45 am, a parent/guardian must fill out the dedicated Experience Maranatha Form. Please fill this form out at least a day in advance to help streamline the process and note that an adult will need to be present to check out the student at Student Services.
Need to check out after the Upper School Choir Performance (12:30 pm)?
If, for any reason, a middle school student needs to be checked out past 12:30 pm, a parent or special guest will need to visit the grade appropriate classroom to check the student out.
Grades 5–6 in room #216
Grades 7–8 in room #240
Any student not checked out for the day will attend the Upper School (MS & HS) Band Performance, starting at 2 pm in the sanctuary.
Please note: middle school students will not be released without an adult present to check them out and all must be accompanied by an adult for the day.
