School Calendar & Handbook

Click here to download the 2007-2008 School Calendar and Handbook.

The School Calendar and Handbook contains both the school calendar for the year, as well as a copy of the student/parent handbook. Because this publication is created over the summer, when not all event dates for the school year are completely set, we ask that families use the calendar simply as a guide for upcoming events. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on upcoming events, please visit www.mchs.net and click on the "Schedules" link. The handbook portion of the publication, however, is to be followed throughout the school year. If you have questions about the handbook, please contact the Deans' Office at 467-2140, ext. 160.

Number of issues per year: 1 (published externally)
Mailed to: All current MCHS families
Publication Date: August 1 of each school year
