Attention- Rising 6th Grade Parents

As you begin to think about the transition to middle school please keep in mind two items that need to be completed:

  1. Please activate your MyMCPS Parent Portal accounts to do so in preparation for the transition to the middle school.  Next week your child will be bringing home the directions and password to assist you in setting up your account.  Please watch your child’s backpack for this important information.
  2. Please be mindful of vaccinations required for middle school students.
