Just a quick reminder that menus for both buildings are located on our website under dining.
Sack lunches are not able to be stored in refrigerators at school. They will need to be kept in lockers until lunch time. We are also not able to reheat lunches. You may send a drink with your child's lunch but it needs to be water, fruit juice, or milk. Soda is not allowed at lunch.
We had a fantastic first day at MdCV!! Thank you students, staff, parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles for bearing with us during all of the changes.
SCHEDULE CHANGE: Due to the guidance from KSHSAA and the Lyon County League, the Burlingame Volleyball Tournament on August 29, 2020, at 9am, has changed to a multi-site tournament. Specifically, MDCV is now the host of a quad of participating teams, including your Lady Trojans. Good luck ladies!
Tomorrow is the day! Just a few reminders.
-School starts at 8:00am and runs until 3:30pm.
-Shuttle busses leave at 7:30 from both buildings.
-With the exception of those riding the shuttle buses, we ask that no student should be on either campus until 7:30am.
-Students and staff will only be using the rear doors at Melvern at this time, and will report upon arrival to the commons/big gym until dismissed to classes.
-Quenemo will use the front door as usual.
Thank you, we will see all students tomorrow!
Parents of JH/HS athletes - handbooks/parent letters for your student's specific sport have been posted online for your convenience!
We may not be conducting a parent meeting in person, but it is still important to know your coach's expectations for the season. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your student's coach!

The buildings have been cleaned, the staff have arrived, and the planning has been set. WE ARE READY for the first day of school on Wednesday, August 19th, 2020! Please make sure your student brings a face covering to wear, a backpack for any items, and a smile on their face for a great year! We cannot wait to welcome your student to our buildings!

SCHEDULE CHANGE: Out of an abundance of caution and with an eye on focusing on competition dates, Marais des Cygnes Valley has cancelled its' annual "Meet the Trojans" event and the Preseason Football Jamboree for the 2020-2021 school year. In a season of potential uncertainty, maintaining the ability to meet the games on the regular schedule outweighs the want to conduct a pre-season scrimmage. Our aim is to continue these dates next school year.
New jobs have been posted to our Employment web page! Be sure to check regularly for the most up-to-date listings of current open positions at Marais des Cygnes Valley! Positions are listed here: https://www.mdcv.org/o/mdcv/page/employment--394
