Families of Mat-Su Central,
We hope this message finds you safe from the wind and excited for the Christmas season. A friendly reminder that our building will be closed December 19 and will reopen January 5. As always, check out our full calendar and website for the most up to date information.
On-Site Hybrid Learning Academy

S1 Grades Due on December 18:
- In the MCS model, home educators submit grades to their advisor for certified approval. While advisors support families through regular meetings, check-ins, and progress monitoring, the formal submission of grades provides an additional layer of accountability to ensure student success. Families should plan to:
- Enter the grade
- Upload a work sample
- Provide the required narrative.
- Please watch this video for an overview of how to submit grades through the parent portal.
- Grades for on-site hybrid classes will be entered by the teacher; families do not need to take additional action for those courses.
- If you experience any issues during grade submission, please send screenshots to your advisor so we can help troubleshoot.
From the Accounting Department
- To receive a reimbursement by Christmas, all submissions needed to be completed by November 30.
- All receipts dated July 1–December 31 must be submitted by January 25, 2026.
- Visit our Allotment FAQ for answers to common questions.
