On-Campus Classes Start August 6, 2020

Dear Students and Parents, 
A heartfelt thank you to all of our kindergarten, middle school and high school families who participated in our recent graduations on Sunday, May 31st. With the recent events surrounding COVID-19, this was the most memorable day of graduations and a first for MCS…Graduation Ceremony Car Parades! We are trusting our graduates felt loved and honored during our graduation ceremonies and for cherished memories to fill your hearts for years to come. 
And now for some really exciting news...Modesto Christian School is committed to returning to on-campus, in person classes in August 2020. Our current plan is to have students participate in Crusader Round-Up on Wednesday, August 5 and classes starting Thursday, August 6, 2020. 
The MCS School Board and Administration are working diligently to develop thoughtful strategies in adopting guidelines to protect our MC community while having as near to normal school experience as possible. We know that one size does not fit all in school campuses or their responses, strategies and plans during these unusual times. Modesto Christian School is uniquely situated to adapt, innovate, and provide a healthy campus in a welcoming and productive learning environment. We invite you to contact us with any questions you may have. We will continue to update you as we develop common sense protocols for our reopening. 
Modesto Christian High School is also committed to returning students to school based athletics. The use of athletic facilities for Summer conditioning and sport specific start dates are to be determined. The return of high school sports will be in accordance with the guidelines set forth by the National Federation of State High School Associations, the Sports Medicine Advisory Committee, the California Interscholastic Federation and Stanislaus County Public Health. Again, one size does not fit all and we will establish our guidelines accordingly as we commit to the return of our athletics with healthy and reasonable protocols. As we obtain more guidance from the organizations mentioned and our local governing bodies and as we solidify protocols, we will forward information to you in a timely manner. 
​
Until we see you again, we wish you and your family a safe and healthy summer.
