Good morning, MCDC!

 

Thank you to the families who have completed our 2022 survey so far. Roughly half of our enrolled families have completed the survey so far, which we plan to close at the end of day TOMORROW 8 November. We've had some fabulous feedback so far and very candid comments which we really appreciate. We hope to have the full results - and our action plan to address some noted issues - out by the end of the week.

 

If you have not already, please complete the fully anonymous survey here https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FK9D8TN to help ensure your family's voice is heard.

A tree to climb, a pile of leaves to jump in, stories to tell, and a hand to hold are cozy Fall memories to cherish in your soul.

SIGN UP HERE

Whether shy or full of energy, an adventure awaits your child among the golden tones of this limited edition portrait set.  

In our Fall 2022 Falling For You sample gallery you will find earthy color tones. Bold fall colors like yellows, oranges, reds, or more neutral tones of khaki, and cream look amazing with the Falling For You Fall Set. For Fall, think – denim, corduroy, sweaters, boots; along with accessories such as: hats, bowties, suspenders, hair bows, and special jewelry.

Our photographers love to work with the personal items you send with your child… a lovie, blankies, fresh flowers, an heirloom toy, etc. When you register your child for mini-sessions, make sure you leave a note about the item you plan to send with your child so we make sure it gets included in a few portraits.

You will fall in love with the Fall portrait clothing that we have gathered for you!

     

 

  • Send meaningful props to use in your portrait.  These portraits will be a wonderful reminder of your children at this age and their interests and passions.
  • SEND: Fresh flowers, wooden toys, dolls, jewelry, a favorite stuffed animal or book, musical instrument, their lovie, or anything else your child loves!

 

  • View and order your images in your private on-line gallery.  
  • A typical proof set has 10-15 images.   
  • Share your access code with family and friends to show off your images!   
  • You have one week to make your selections. 

Investment:  8x10's start at $25.  Packages start at $65 and are available with increasing discounts.  Digital images are also available.  A digital artist custom crops and enhances each image, and portraits are professionally printed on archival paper.  

DEPLOYED SPOUSE PROGRAM:  If you have a spouse deployed with the US Military, make note of this in the comments section when you order.  We'll send a special gift to say "Thank you for your service!"

FOSTER PARENT PROGRAM:  If you are a foster parent, we salute you!  We know this is a tremendous job, and we'd like to offer you a 30% discount on your portraits.  Ask your director for the foster parent coupon code.

 

Portraits will be delivered to your school for pick up.  We'll send you an email when they are ready (within 4 weeks of ordering).  Home shipping is also available (this is great for out-of town grandparents who order!)

MCDC Community,

 

We promised to review the CDC's COVID guidelines when making decisions for MCDC, we just didn't expect the CDC to issue new guidelines yesterday! In light of the CDC's recommended changes to quarantine, earlier today the MCDC BOD passed the attached resolution removing the requirement for exposed students and staff to quarantine following a positive exposure.

 

As we work to streamline and simplify our financial processes, we also passed the attached resolution removing cash as a payment option for our recurring fees charged through Brightwheel. We prefer all families to use Brightwheel's ACH or credit card option whenever possible.

 

Have a great weekend!

MCDC Board of Directors
