Dear Parent/Family,

Thank you for your interest in enrolling your child in the Mecklenburg Area Catholic Schools for the 2017-18 school year! We are very excited about the quality and direction of our programs and look forward to having you join the MACS family. The MACS regional system is pleased to offer nine campus locations for students: Charlotte Catholic High School (9-12), Christ the King Catholic High School (9-12), Holy Trinity Catholic Middle School (6-8), St. Mark Catholic School (K-8), Our Lady of the Assumption (PK, K-8), St. Matthew Catholic School (TK, K-5), St. Gabriel Catholic School (K-5), St. Ann Catholic School (PK,TK, K-5),and St. Patrick Catholic School (K-5). You are always welcome to visit our schools for a tour. Please call the school directly to schedule a visit.

Included in this packet you will find information on our schools, admission guidelines, and applications for admissions. Our admissions process is a sincere attempt to look at each child’s individual learning needs to determine if we have the most appropriate educational environment for him/her. Past school records as well as entrance testing equip our admissions committee with information to best place each student. Please be sure to provide all requested documentation.

Every effort will be made to assign your student to your first choice school. In the event that your first choice is unavailable, applicants are assigned to your second or third choice school. If your application does not include a second or third choice school, your child will be placed on a waitlist for your first choice school. Waitlists follow the MACS Priority Placement guidelines. In order to qualify for Catholic priority admittance and participating parishioner tuition rates, you must be verified by your pastor as a participating member of the parish listed on your application. Families from Charlotte and surrounding areas should submit a completed Parish Participation Voucher with their application. Families relocating to Charlotte should submit a letter from their out-of-town parish indicating their participation in that parish. A participating parishioner is one who is baptized Catholic, registered in the parish, attends every Sunday and Holy Day Mass and contributes time, talent and treasure for the support of the parish. Our Catholic schools work to create an environment in which the teachings of Jesus are promoted and proclaimed as the basis of the values they teach and uphold. At the heart of the curriculum is the study of the Catholic Faith. Religion classes are an important part of each student’s academic day. Catholic parents are required to enroll their children in their parish sacramental programs for Reconciliation, First Holy Communion and Confirmation. Catholic school teachers will teach the academic remote preparation for the sacraments; however, the liturgical proximate preparation, parent meetings, and retreats are completed at the student’s family parish in which they are spiritually nurtured.

This packet contains all of the information needed to begin the application process. Please visit our website at www.discovermacs.org to find additional information on application, MACS Tuition Assistance, Transportation, and After School Enrichment Programs.

If we can be of any assistance to you during the admissions process, please do not hesitate to call the MACS Admissions Office at (704)370-3273. Thank you for your interest and we look forward to having you as a member of the MACS family. Kindly, Rebekah Ruhle Director of Admissions [email protected]
