The MCPS Student Ambassadors will have their annual Fall Retreat this Thursday as they welcome guests from the WKU Spirit Masters.
There will be drive-thru COVID-19 testing clinics at Marion County High School from 3:30-5:50 today (9-21), Thursday (9-23), next Tuesday (9-28) and next Thursday (9-30). These are open to the public (parents, community members, etc.) and no appointment is necessary.
Recently, we’ve experienced issues with our mass messaging system. Specifically, when we’ve attempted to send voice messages, the recorded messages have not played.
We want to apologize for this problem and let you know we are working with our messaging provider to have it corrected.
In the meantime, our messaging provider has suggested we use the text-to-speech option (what some refer to as the robot voice) instead of recording a message when sending our calls. We’d prefer you hear an actual human voice when you receive those messages, but for now you might receive calls that use text-to-speech instead.
