Mason County Central School District - Our Actions Will Inspire and Equip Students to Excel

Dear MCC School Family, At the end of the day today, Thursday, December 9th, Middle School Staff and Administration were made aware of a rumored threat from an MCC Middle School Student. The Scottville Police Department was notified immediately to help us determine if the rumor was true and a threat could be verified. The student in question, along with his parents were paid a visit at home by Chief Murphy of the Scottville PD. From the investigation/threat assessment, it was determined that the rumor was NOT credible and was started by another student or students entirely. Let me make this perfectly clear... there is NOT a threat toward the school as rumored. It is unfortunate that we now have to deal with the student(s) that is/are the source of the rumor and said student(s) could face severe consequences at school and possibly within the courts as such a hurtful and untrue rumor can completely disrupt a school system, cause deep community concern, heightened anxiety and a waste of public safety/ school resources. Parents, please have a conversation with your children about how words can have serious consequences and never is there a time to even joke about something as serious as a school shooting. And Students, we thank you for sharing what you heard at school or on the bus this afternoon so we could be sure to track any threat or rumor down and assure our schools remain a safe place to learn and grow. As we often say: If you see or hear something that could hurt you or others... PLEASE TELL US. Thank you Chief Murphy for running down every lead to get to the bottom of this unfortunate and completely avoidable situation.

Dear MCC School Family, FOR IMMEDIATE EFFECT: At tonight's (10/18/2021) Board of Education meeting it was decided to modify the 2021-22 Return to Learn Plan to no longer require masks for teachers, staff, students and visitors in grades Pre-K through 6th. Masks are highly recommended for all; and encouraged for vaccinated staff and students. Please know this does not apply to school buses as there is still a federal mandate for all public transportation including our MCC buses.

Just a reminder to parents that there will be no school TOMORROW October 8th as the teacher will be participating in an in-service day. School will resume on Monday October 11th. We hope you have a wonderful weekend!!!

If your children are virtual learners you are entitled to free breakfast and lunch. See the attached flyer or call MCC Food Service department – 231-757-5721 for more information.

Good morning, we'd like to share a point of clarification with our families regarding our lunch program. As you are aware, breakfast and lunch are free for all children this year (Fed. Government funded). Breakfast and lunch also come with a choice of chocolate or white milk. Unfortunately, children that carry a cold lunch would need to purchase their milk ( .35 cents) if they choose to take one. Milk is not considered part of the free program if the children don't order a full lunch. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
