Next year’s 8th grade trip to Washington, D.C. will take place during the first week of Spring Break. Additional information, including registration details and trip information, will be shared in the fall.

Please note: Students’ lunch accounts and consumable fees must be paid in full in order for students to be eligible to attend the trip.

Starting next school year, all 8th grade students will be enrolled in PE 1 in place of Wellness 8. This change ensures students continue to receive the required health instruction while also participating in a semester physical education course. As part of this shift, students will earn high school credit during their 8th grade year. We are excited to offer this option as a way to support both student wellness and academic advancement.

At the May 2026 meeting, the MVCSC Board of Trustees approved consumable curricular fees for the 2026-2027 school year. These fees are based on each student’s course schedule and are not textbook rental fees.

Consumable fees cover materials students use during coursework, such as clay, paint, sheet music, science lab supplies, PLTW project materials, and other hands-on classroom resources, but do not include textbooks. These materials are used directly by students and cannot be reused from year to year.

The complete list of fees will be posted under the “Parents” tab on each school's website soon and will be communicated to families once available.

As summer begins, we encourage all students to keep reading! Even just 15–20 minutes of reading each day can help maintain and strengthen literacy skills while building imagination and curiosity. Trips to the library, reading together as a family, audiobooks, magazines, and independent reading all count!

Students can also continue using IXL throughout the summer to help keep math and English skills sharp. A little practice each week can make a big difference in helping students feel confident and prepared when school begins again in the fall.

Thank you for supporting learning beyond the classroom. We hope your family has a safe, restful, and fun summer!

As summer begins and screen time naturally increases, it’s a great opportunity for families to reinforce healthy and responsible technology habits. Here are a few reminders to help students stay safe, balanced, and respectful online during the summer months:

Technology can be a wonderful tool for learning, creativity, and connection when used responsibly. Thank you for partnering with us to help students build safe and healthy digital habits all summer long!
