MCP: 36th Street Family Newsletter

Week of September 2nd

Dismissal Reminder

Car Line runs from 3:10-3:30. 36th and Wright will be closed from incoming traffic so the carline can move quickly. You can join the car line from 37th and North Ave. into the school’s parking lot at 2:45. We need to keep Meinecke clear so that the car line has a place to exit. All staff come inside at 3:30.
Parent Pick Up from the Classroom is from 3:10 - 4:00. You can park in the surrounding area, walk into the building from the south door, check in with the teacher, and sign your scholar out of their classroom. Please remember, for the safety of our scholars, an adult has to sign the child out.
Late Pick-Up start at 4:01. Remaining scholars will be waiting on the North staircase for their rides. You still must come in and sign them out. The late fee is $1 per minute, per kid. This charge will be added to your scholars account. Late pick-up charges will begin August 28th.

Attendance Matters

Our attendance goal at MCP is 96% each week. We have high academic goals, and to support your scholar’s academic success, we need them here every day. We understand that life happens and they will be absent from time to time. Please notify the front office as soon as possible if your scholar will be absent or tardy
