School Calendar

The School Calendar contains scheduled events (academic, athletic, extra-curricular, etc.) for the entire school year. Because this publication is created over the summer, when not all event dates for the school year are completely set, we ask that families use the calendar simply as a guide for upcoming events. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, please visit www.mchs.net.

Distribution: The School Calendar is made available as a full 12-month download at www,mchs.net.  Each month’s calendar is also re-issued on the back page of the monthly “Connections” newsletter. (Note the Board-approved one-page version of the school calendar is provided to all families prior to the start of each school year).
