Weather Policy
We will do our best to display the status of late openings, early closings or school cancellations on the home page of our site.
Visit the site www.schools-out.com for our closing status. Click on the orange “Find your school” on the right top corner. Then either click on Maryland and scroll down or search for Mountain Christian School. Bookmark it for easy access. On the home page of this site you can also sign up to receive an email whenever MCS closes. (For a small yearly fee, you can also have a text message sent to your cell phone.)
- Please have a back-up plan for your child to be picked up if school closes early.
- Be sure that the school has current and accurate phone numbers to contact you during the school day.
- Know that staff will not leave until every child has been picked up.
- Listen and watch for TV and Radio Announcements:
- WBAL TV–Channel 11
- WBAL AM Radio (AM 1090)
- WPOC FM Radio (93.1)
- WRBS FM Radio (95.1)
- WE WILL be able to place your child’s lunch order when we open late (providing that we were open and able to tally the orders on the Monday preceding the late opening.)
- There is no afternoon Extended Care on days when school closes early.
- When MCS has an early closing we encourage you to call to let us know that someone is en route. Provide us with the name of the person picking up your child(ren). If the person picking up your child is not listed on your child’s emergency card he/she will need to show a picture I.D. and give us permission to release your child to their care.
