Welcome To A New School Year!

The 2010-2011 school year is officially here. This past week was a very busy week at Macomb Christian. On Monday night we had our Back to School event. This was a very exciting night with many different activities taking place. It was great to see all of the families back in the school.

Wednesday was the first day of school for the students. Excitement and anticipation filled the halls as students, parents, and teachers waited for the new school year to begin. We have many new students this year, and I was encouraged to see how comfortable they felt at school by Friday afternoon.

This week the students will be bringing home blue information folders regarding the Servathon. I believe that this will be an amazing event and I am thrilled that MCS is going to be apart of it. Please be watching for the folders to come home to find out how your family can be involved.

I am so excited about all of the possibilities that a new school year holds. I know that God has many great things planned for Macomb Christian, and I truly feel blessed to be apart of His work.

Just A Few More Days...

It is hard to believe that in a few days, we will be starting the 2010-2011 school year. As each day goes by, I am getting more and more excited for school to start. I can't wait to have all of the students back in the building. It is too quiet there without them.

I hope that all of you are planning to attend the Back to School Event on Monday night. We will be having a new student meeting, senior parent meeting, sports meeting, and much more. There will be an opportunity for all students and parents to meet all of the teachers and go to the classrooms.

Please continue to check out the school's website (www.macombchristianschools.org) for the most recent back to school information. Continue to check out the website throughout the school year. We will be using the website to communicate a lot of information.

I hope to see all of you Monday night!

Two Weeks and Counting...

I can hardly believe that in just 2 short weeks the first day of school will be here. I am so excited to have all of the students back in the hallways. Everyone is working very hard getting ready for the big day. The K-12 enrollment is currently around 150 students. Everyday we are receiving phone calls with families interested in MCS so keep praying!

I wanted to tell you about 2 major events that will be happening soon. The first is the Back to School Event on Monday, August 23. This event is a combination of several different nights we typically have. All new families should plan on attending the New Student Orientation at 6:30 in the library to learn more about the school. Throughout the evening secondary students will be able to pick up their class schedules and locker assignments in the gym. The revised Parent/Student Handbook will also be available that evening. Meet the Teacher night will also take place during the event from 7:00-8:00 pm. This is an opportunity for parents (and students) to meet all of the teachers, learn about each class, and ask questions. More information on this event can be found on the school's website under the Back to School link.

The second event is the Servathon on Thursday, September 23. On this day, students, parents, and school employees from 6 Christian schools will be coming together to serve the Detroit region. Approximately 5,000 people will be out on this day serving and connecting. We will need all of your help to make this event possible. We need parent volunteers to help coordinate projects, drive students, serve with the students, and more. Check out the school's website for more information on how to help out.

Keep checking the school's website for more information on these events and more back to school information. I'm looking forward to seeing all of you on August 23!
