  • Welcome Back and Public Health Update Zoom Link

    Dear Miller Creek Community, Welcome Back! We hope you have been enjoying your time away from your very busy school year schedule and have spent a relaxing summer, traveling, reuniting with family and friends and just plain, old fashioned summer “lounging”.  Like all of you, when we turn the page of the wall calendar to August, we start to feel that familiar fall excitement about that big event ahead-the first day of school!.   For many in our community, the summer was not as blissful and carefree as we might have wished, as the BA.4/BA.5 variant was circulating widely and interrupting, even altering vacation plans. Last week Marin County moved from the CDC high community level to medium level, which is great news for schools. Our County Public Health Officers, Dr. Matt Willis and Dr. Lisa Santora, will provide a COVID-19 Public Health Update for the School Community, on TODAY , Monday, August 15 at 4:00pm. Zoom Online: https://zoom.us/join   Phone: (408) 638-0968 ID: 883 4879 8206  Passcode: 273959 We will continue to make adjustments to our protocols as we receive updates from the county and state and if necessary. Watch the news feed on the front page of the district’s website for information about our meal service plan, which will include breakfast for the first time, our 2022-23 bus schedules and passes, and our transition to ParentSquare communication platform. We are so excited to be preparing for the start of school and the return of our teachers, staff and students. We are thrilled to be planning again for a more typical school year, with classes in-person, five days a week and we can’t wait to see all those happy, smiling faces back on campus. It will be great to have everyone back and our classrooms and campuses bustling everyday with the enthusiasm of learning, community and joy.   Sincerely, Becky Rosales | Superintendent Kristy Treewater | Deputy Superintendent

  • Important MCSD Back-to-School Forms in the Aeries Pa...

    Important MCSD Back-to-School Forms in the Aeries Parent Portal Dear Miller Creek School District Families, We look forward to the upcoming 2022-23 school year! As a reminder, the first day of school is Thursday, Aug. 18. More information will be shared as that date approaches, but we want to first let you know about some important back-to-school forms in the Aeries Parent Portal that you will be required to review and complete. Back-to-School Process in Aeries Parent Portal
 The Aeries Parent Portal is our tool for TK-8 parents/guardians to have online access to view your child’s digital school records, including emergency contact information, health records, attendance, state testing reports and more. We have already launched the required Back-to-School action steps in the Aeries Parent Portal. On Monday, July 29th, you received an email from MCSD through ParentSquare asking you to login to your Aeries Parent Portal account to complete the back-to-school forms - this is called the Data Confirmation Process.  This process allows you to confirm or update your child’s information, including contact information, household income, emergency contacts, medical information and more. It also allows you to acknowledge required District policies and authorizations. One of the steps is for you to enter your household income and the number of people in your household.  This survey is very helpful for MCSD and your support in completing it is very much appreciated.  You have the option to decline the income bracket question, and your survey will still count as completed if you do so.   Please complete this process for each child who attends MCSD. You can complete this on a computer, tablet or smartphone. Helpful information: Back-to-School forms / Data Confirmation Process Parent Guide You will need to complete this for each student as soon as possible.  Thank you for your support for this important process. Sincerely, Miller Creek School District

    July 29th, 2022 Dear Parent/Guardian,  The Aeries Parent Portal provides secure, online access to view and manage your child’s digital school records including emergency contact information, health records, and to view state testing reports. The use of your Parent Portal will become increasingly more important to access and provide important school information.  Action Needed: Student Data Confirmation Please login to your Parent Portal account to confirm accuracy of student information including: addresses, parent/guardian and emergency contacts, medical condition updates; and to acknowledge school policies and authorizations for students. Using your Parent Portal saves time and resources! This process replaces the completion of paper emergency cards.  The Student Data Confirmation process must be completed prior to receiving your child’s teacher assignment(s). For parents/guardians with multiple students, there is an Add New Student procedure that requires the verification code for each of your students. Student Data Confirmation must be completed for each student. Each parent can have an Aeries Parent Portal account for one or more students. Please coordinate as to which parent will perform the Student Data Confirmation process. For returning students, click  here to login and access your Parent Portal account or visit our district’s homepage. Your login is the primary email address on file with the district along with a password. If you forgot your password, click the forgot password link to reset a new password.  For students new to the district, parents /guardians will have received a separate email indicating that an account has been created after registration.  Throughout the School Year The Aeries Parent Portal can be accessed throughout the school year to allow parents/guardians to update information as needed and to view student information such as state testing scores and attendance.  For questions, please contact  support@millercreeksd.org or the school office.
