				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>MCA recently attained accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and renewed our accreditation with the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI).</p>
<p>Here is what they had to say about MCA:</p>
<p>&#8220;The self-study and school visit revealed that the school adhere to, or exceeds all critical and non-negotiable standards. In fact, the school is a highly effective enterprise with leadership, faculty, staff and Board highly committed to the provision of a stimulating, demanding educational program which thoroughly reflects its mission and is characterized by excellent student performance. It&#8217;s very, very clear that the leadership and staff take the standards seriously and are committed to see those standards addressed in a comprehensive, thorough, efficient and effective manner. <a title="Philosophy" href="http://visitmca.org/about_mca/philosophy/">The school is faithful to its mission</a> and focuses all efforts on student learning and student achievement. The self-study process is taken seriously and is the basis for ongoing school improvement.&#8221;</p>

<h2 align="center">This Sunday, Dec 16th at 6pm</h2>
<h3 align="center"></h3>
<p align="center"><em>&#8220;The Perfect King”  </em>is an original time travel children’s story about a Christmas play at a local senior center.  When the Principal agrees to take a creative and unpredictable turn on this year’s event, the kids are blessed beyond their normal “Acts” of kindness.  The kids have brought goodies, fictional lions, jungle dancers, a queen, orphans, the mayor and their own senior citizens to share some laughs as they search for “<em>The Perfect King”.  </em>See what happens when Grandpa George and a couple of his “Wise” friends take the stage in this jubilant intergenerational celebration of Jesus Christ, “<em>The Perfect King”.</em></p>

<p>Thank you to all the parents who helped to make this trip possible!    The students were able to develop an awareness and appreciation of great music.  This program helped many students and parents walk away wanting to learn an instrument.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Info on the Symphony</h3>
