MCP: 36th Street Family Newsletter
Week of September 23rd
"I represent myself, my family, and my community". ~DOE
Here are MCP we emphasize knowledge, PLUS character. As a part of the MCP family please familiarize yourself with the MCP Family, Volunteer, and Visitor Code of Conduct. Every adult, staff and guest, are modeling the appropriate behavior expectations for our scholars.
MCP Fast Food Policy
Fast Food Lunches (MCP Family Handbook pg. 14)
We kindly request your support in upholding our wellness policy by providing nutritious lunches for your children, while discouraging the inclusion of fast food. However, we understand that there may be exceptional circumstances or special occasions where fast food is necessary. In such instances, we urge parents to consider healthier alternatives, such as subs. Please be aware that our guidelines regarding the prohibition of soda and portion sizes apply universally, whether the lunch is brought from home or purchased from a fast food establishment.
In order to maintain an environment conducive to focused learning, MCP has instituted a policy that strictly prohibits the delivery of food by third-party companies, including but not limited to; UberEats, Grubhub, and DoorDash. Additionally, attempts to deliver food by individuals not identified on the scholar's MCP profile will be denied. Likewise, we cannot accept or accommodate food deliveries made by parents/ guardians after the scholar's designated lunch period has ended. Any such deliveries will either be declined or disposed of accordingly. It is important to emphasize that MCP lacks the necessary refrigeration space and oversight to safely monitor food left for scholars outside of the specified policy guidelines outlined above.
Attendance Matters
Our attendance goal is 96%! Shoutout to the classes that were over 96% last week. I look forward to seeing attendance continue to go up this week.
T.R.E.C.K.
We are officially kicking off the character development of our T.R.E.C.K. skills. Here at Milwaukee College Prep, we strategically and intentionally focus on trust, respect, empathy, courage, and knowledge. We encourage you all to continue these conversations and practice these skills at home.
