Community Schools
MCS prides itself on making the distinction that it is not simply a child care service but in fact, an optional, enrichment out-of-school time program that promotes learning and growth. MCS serves students attending Milton Public Schools in grades K-5 by providing courses focusing on physical activities, the arts, STEM, and social age-appropriate enrichment and recreational activities.
History
MCS was founded in 1982 to provide Milton Public School students in grades K-5 extracurricular activities in a safe enrichment environment. MCS is a self-supporting department of Milton Public Schools. We do not receive funds from Milton Public Schools or grants from state or federal government.
MCS received a Community Builder Award in 2000 for enriching childhood education in Milton.
