MCC Family, 

It is the final week of the 2022-23 school year and there are a few updates to prepare parents and students for the end of the school year.  This newsletter serves as the updates that  you will need.  Please review it carefully.

As this is the final week of the school year, we will be conducting final exams for the third trimester.  The final exam schedule can be found here:  https://www.mccschools.org/o/mcc-high-school/article/1139937

The last day of school is Friday, June 9th and it is a half-day of school with students being dismissed at 11:30am.  Lunches will be available as students leave the building.  Please remember that there is no eating on buses but students may transfer the lunches home with them.  

Monday, June 5th is the last day of CTE classes.  Students who are bus riders may be in school at MCC but must remain in the cafeteria or in the library with permission until they are to go to MCC classes for the rest of the day.  If a CTE student drives to school they may arrive at the time that their MCC classes begin.  

Grade reductions are being figured by office staff.  Students are allowed to have five absences but on the sixth and beyond they get a ½ grade reduction for every absence past the 5th absence.  Doctor notes, funerals, school-related absences, and pre-arranged absences do not count toward this total.  

Students will take their school-issued Chromebooks home with them for the summer and are responsible for them and bringing them back ready to use for the next school year.  Broken Chromebooks or missing chargers must be paid for by the student.  

Did you know:

  1.  Quentin Lange finished 4th in the state in the high jump and is all-state for the 2nd year in a row.

  2. The class of 2023 has graduated and the commencement was a great celebration of their education at MCC.

  3. William Chye was voted our overall senior for 2023 and won numerous awards and scholarships.  He is on his way to Muskegon Community College to play basketball and baseball.  Other winners of overall class winners were Asher Johnson (junior), Gabe Danielson (Sophomore), and Aubrey Chye (Freshman).  

  4. Mr. Tim Genson is retiring from MCC as our athletic director, teacher, and coach after 30+ years of service.  MCC has hired Mr. Brian Beebe to be our new athletic director and assistant principal.  

  5. The Spring band and choir concert was conducted by our students and band director, Mr. Schultz in May.  A fantastic night with numerous students winning awards.  

  6. The grave restoration group recently visited two cemeteries and has now cleaned the headstones of veterans.  This group has been together for over two years and has cleaned well over 1000 gravestones.  The group is led by Mr. Richert. 

It has been a pleasure to be with the students of MCC once again and we look forward to a new school year in the fall of 2023!  

Stay safe over the summer, Spartans!
