Each child's safety and welfare is of the greatest importance. Consistent communication between home and school is essential to promote the best interests of your child and all children attending MCC Elementary School. I encourage you to become involved and to contact your child's teacher or myself if you have any questions or comments throughout the year. I hope you are all enjoying our web-site at http://www.mcc.mntm.org/. This site, updated on a daily basis, is an excellent communication tool for parents. You can log into your account to check your student’s progress reports, attendance and lunch account balances. Sports scores, daily announcements and staff information are just a few of the things available with the click of your mouse. I look forward to meeting you and your children and encourage you to contact me with any questions on programs or services at 836-6450 ext 5102. You may also email me at todd_burlingame@mcc.mntm.org. It is my hope that this academic year will be the best ever for you and your family. Make Good Choices and be awesome.
Sincerely,
Todd Burlingame
MCC Elementary Principal
