Open House at all schools August 28

It’s almost time to get back to school! Administrators and Staff are starting to report today, August 20, to begin preparations for the 2018-19 school year. Here are the latest updates from the Manchester Community Schools district administration office:

PowerSchool is now open with Middle School and High School schedules. If you need assistance with signing into PowerSchool, try using your student’s @mcs.k12.mi.us address. In person schedule change times for 12th grade will be Wednesday, August 22, 9 am to noon; 11th grade, Wednesday, August 22, 12:30-3:30 pm; 10th grade, Thursday August 23, 9 am to noon; and 9th grade, Thursday, August 23, 12:30-3:30 pm. 

The district’s annual open house is scheduled on Tuesday, August 28th from 5:30-7:30 pm. There will not be any registration dates for this school year; students and parents can register at Open House night. Freshman orientation will take place just prior to Open House on August 28, starting at 5 pm in the high school auditorium.

Riverside (Grades 3-6) and Klager (K-2) sent emails on Friday morning to families with class placements. If you have not yet received an email, please check your “spam” or “junk” file; if the message is not there, please contact the administration office as soon as possible to ensure the district has your correct contact information on file.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
