Marion C. Early R-V School District

MCE Families, As we head into the winter weather season, we want to share some important information regarding school closures, communication, and instructional plans. Communication When winter weather creates unsafe travel conditions, the decision to close or dismiss school early will be made as early as possible. Because our district spans multiple counties and includes a variety of road conditions, some areas may be safe for travel while others are not. If school is canceled or dismissed early, we will notify families through our automated call and text system. It is essential that we have a current, working phone number on file for your household. We will also post announcements on our social media platforms and share them with local news outlets. AMI Days Alternative Methods of Instruction (AMI) provide flexible, remote learning opportunities that vary by grade level. On an AMI Day, students will complete assigned coursework from home. AMI will not be used for every inclement weather day; if an AMI Day is implemented, it will be announced at the same time as the school closure. Your student’s building will provide additional details and expectations for AMI Days. Make-Up Days Any required make-up days will take place on the predetermined Mondays listed on the district school calendar. Thank you for your cooperation and flexibility as we work to keep our students and staff safe. MCE Administration

Christmas will be here soon and we want to ensure all our MCE families have a holiday meal. If you or someone you know are in need of food for a Christmas meal please contact MCE Elementary Counselor, Kayla Wilson at 417-376-2215. Deadline to sign up for a Christmas meal is Thursday, December 4th.

Come out and support the JV Panther Basketball Team on Saturday @ 5:00 in the Dadeville JV Tournament.

Good days start with a great breakfast and our MCE Student Council makes the best. Students were here long before the school day started to prepare and then serve breakfast to our staff at their annual Breakfast for Turkeys. Cash donations collected from staff at the breakfast will be used by the Purpose Place to provide holiday meals for local families. If you'd like to support our students' efforts in fundraising for this cause they will have a 50/50 raffle at the MCE Tournament following Thanksgiving break and will also accept any cash donations. All proceeds support the Purpose Place as they feed families in our community.
