Dear M.M.C.A families,

With about 3 weeks to go before school starts, I would like to take this opportunity to write each of you a quick update with the second of our Summer Flyers!

We will be sending this Summer Flyer electronically via our Google Apps Email Distribution Group, posting it to our website, and posting it to our FACEBOOK page. If you did not receive this Flyer via email, please 1) check your Spam folder and 2) email us at mmca@mmcharter.org with SUBSCRIBE in the subject line so that we can make sure that you are on our distribution list.

Here are a couple items that we would like to update you about. I hope each of you is having a wonderful summer!

Mr. Boothby

We have a new Business Manager!

I am very excited to announce that Tamara Fernandes is returning to our school community as our new Business Manager! Tamara has worked for our school in the past, and was most recently the Principal’s Secretary at Whitney High School. Welcome back Tamara!

Electronic Communications Data Update

Heads up: We are going to send a brief Google-Doc based data confirmation form for each of our families that will include opportunities to update phone numbers and email addresses. We will use this information within our OneCall telecommunication and texting system and to update our school email distribution database. This data confirmation update will arrive via a separate email later this week. Please take a moment to fill this out by July 31st.

School Calendar

The updated 2023-2024 school calendar is on the website HERE. Please note that we are continuing to use the Google Apps Calendar on our website for our current events calendar.

Summer Camp Update:

Summer Camp has been doing awesome! If you have any questions about Summer Camp, including last minute enrollment, please contact Mrs. Cohodes at jcohodes@mmcharter.org. We are “basing” Summer Camp out of our D2 classroom this year. You can reach this classroom by phone by dialing (916) 630-1510 ext. 223.

School Store Update:

We’ve updated the links on our School Store page to make both school supply orders and school uniform orders electronic. http://www.mmcharter.org/store. Specifically:

Student Supplies:

New parents: One of our traditions at MMCA has been to bulk buy the core student school supplies on behalf of our families. We’ve done this for two reasons:

To save you the time, energy and hassle of going to several different stores to pick up all of the items on our published school supplies list; and
To save you SIGNIFICANT $ by bulk-buying these supplies on your behalf.
Supplies are delivered right to your child’s classroom and will be waiting for them on the first day of school.

The 2023-2024 school supplies list information is now posted on our website. Depending on grade level, our ACTUAL cost for these supplies is approximately $85-$115 per student. We are going to continue the promotion we did last year related to school supplies:

Buy early and save! Purchase supplies for only $60 now thru 8/8; $70 thru 8/18; and $85 8/19 and after. School Supplies can be purchased on our website at this link: http://mmcharter.org/store
