Dear Students, Parents, Staff, and Community Members: Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year. The staff and the administration have been busy to prepare for this school year. The addition of the south campus has relieved the overcrowding of our facilities yet we have made several facility improvements in order to assure a safe, secure, efficient, and effective learning and working environment for both students and staff. Several life safety and improvement projects have been completed this summer in preparation for this school year. The current economic times has caused us to review and tighten our fiscal budget as we project a decrease in projected tax revenues. Although enrollment has slowed from the projected growth, we continue to monitor enrollment, revenue, and expenditures to ensure that we are providing quality programs and services to our students, while being mindful of the cost to our taxpayers. This process will continue throughout the current year and as we prepare the budget for the next year as well. Our business is education and we continue to have positive test scores and our students perform at or above state and national levels. We are proud of the quality programs and services offered to our students and the quality staff at MCHS. We will continue to focus our efforts to help more students achieve at a higher level. The Board of Education meets on the first and the third Thursday of the month and the public is invited. The meetings begin at 6:30 pm and are held in the Career Center at the central campus. A current schedule can be found on the web site at www.mchs.net. Sincerely, Larry Larson, President |
