9:30 AM - All new parents to FCC MDO including new nursery parents

Format

You will be directed to your child's classroom where he/she will be able to meet the teachers and spend approximately 30-45 minutes with them. Parents will go to our chapel area for an informational meeting. There will be documents to fill out as well as handouts. This is a very important meeting for those who are new to FCC MDO, so please make every effort to attend. If you will be unable to attend this meeting, you need to contact Joni Myers to pick up a packet of information before MDO begins.

Fall Schedule

I have attached a preliminary schedule for fall on the right hand side of this blog. I need to explain our tuition schedule. You will also notice several fall Tuesdays when Wms. Co. Schools are out. That is our reason for beginning MDO in August. I wanted you to be able to go ahead and plan for those out-of-school dates.

The calendar does not include any "special" activities that will take place this fall. The teachers will have input on those at our inservice in August, and they will be posted after that.

• There will be no tuition in August to compensate for Tuesdays out this fall. However, we collect tuition one month in advance which means that you will have a payment in August but not have a payment in May.
• September's tuition is due August 15th. You may mail the check to the church or drop it off in the MDO mailbox in the church office. If you are a member of FCC, PLEASE DO NOT PLACE IN COLLECTION PLATE ON SUNDAY! All monies need to come through MDO first for accurate record keeping.
• Tuition is $150 per month with a one-time supply fee of $50. Siblings are $130 for second and $110 for third. All checks need to be made out to Franklin Christian Church and memo'd "MDO". Please do not make out any checks to MDO - we do not have our own account.
• We do not have a direct deposit option nor can we accept checks mailed from your bank. All checks will need to directly come to MDO. We will explain system at the Parent/Teacher meeting August 24th.

Supplies for Fall

Tax Free weekend is set for August 6-8. Here are some items you will need for the school year!

Nursery, Toddler 1 and Toddler 2 will need plastic nap mats. We like the red/blue ones at Walmart as they stack easily. You may purchase a cover for them (or large pillow case works), but we will send it home each week to be washed. The older classes will not be using a nap mat this year.

Each child will need to bring a lunch. We are unable to refrigerate items, so you may want a cool pack for the lunch box especially if you are packing bottles for the nursery. A sippy cup, juice box, or small bottle of water is suggested for Toddler 1 - Pre-K. We also recommend finger foods that are easy for the children to eat themselves (crackers, cheese, fruit, pretzels, applesauce or yogurt) and do not require re-heating. FCC MDO will provide snack each day. We are a "NO NUT" facility due to members of our church with severe allergies, so please do not pack peanut butter, granola bars or any other items that have nuts in them.

FCC MDO provides a tote bag for your belongings so you will not need to purchase any kind of backpack.

Preschool will need to be either potty-trained or in pull-ups. Nursery - Toddler 2 will need to pack diapers/pull-ups, but we supply wipes. Please always pack an extra set or two of underwear for the older classes!
