First Annual Muraski Career Fair

In an effort to provide students with exposure and access to information about various careers and pathways after schooling, with the help of our PTA and Parents within the community, Muraski is excited to bring a career fair to the school.


During this day, students will get to hear from individuals in a variety of fields, so students know what is out there and available to them. Our hope is to encourage them to dream big, but also see the connection between education and whatever their future might hold. With this, we will emphasize our Model Mustang Competencies, developing students that are:


Collaborative

Innovative

Resilient

Empowered

Global

Impact of Unpaid School Fees

As a reminder, all school fees that have not been paid are now considered past due. To check the balance and pay outstanding school fees, go to Pay Schools Central by clicking HERE. In addition to Pay Schools Central, school fees can be paid by cash/check to your student’s building secretary or with the Treasurer's Office. If you have questions related to this, please contact the building secretary or Dawn Evangelista (devangelista@scsmustangs.org) within the Treasurer's Department. As we are approaching a new school year, as well as the start of fall sports, per Board of Education policy, the consequences for outstanding prior year school fees will prohibit students from participating in any school extracurricular activities (i.e., athletics, student council, school clubs, etc.), field trips, and school sanctioned dances / events that require a purchased ticket. For additional information on District Fee Collection Procedures and Consequences CLICK HERE.
