MCPS is asking for your feedback for phase two of developing the 2024-2025 MCPS school calendar year.
MCPS reminder: “Report card distribution is underway for the first quarter. In addition to reviewing academic progress, MCPS is encouraging parents/caregivers to please make note of the number of absences your student had during the first quarter.
A student is considered chronically absent if they are absent 10 percent or more (5 days during the first quarter) of the days they are enrolled. Please make every effort to send your child(ren) to school every day. If you have any barriers to sending your child(ren) to school, reach out to a trusted staff member at your school. They are there to help.
MCPS is hosting a series of forums to learn more about the process for the 2024-2025 operating budget. Join us for discussions with MCPS leadership and an opportunity to ask questions and engage in breakout sessions. Please let us know whether you will attend and whether you will need Spanish or American Sign Language interpretation.Events will be held:
