Our MCP Visual and Performing Arts Department is excited to announce our upcoming production of CLUE directed by our very own multi-talented senior Savita Sohi. 
Savita Sohi is the quintessential triple threat; in her developed skills in Acting, Singing and Dance.  As part of her senior year, Savita is not only the President of The Drama Club; she just finished performing the role of Reno Sweeney in Anything Goes, as well as Directing our Winter production of Clue.

Clue Onstage High School Edition is based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie which was inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, Clue is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by Wadsworth – the butler, Miss Scarlet, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out…WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Greetings,

Happy Tuesday to all and I pray this holiday season is treating you well.  Today is National Day of Giving, a day to show your gratitude and love for the places or institutions that have touched your life. Mission College Prep is one of such places, preparing our students for the next step in their lives.  If Mission College Prep has touched your life, the life of someone you  know, or if you want to touch the life of a young person,  I encourage you to consider leaving a small donation of just $10.  If you wish to give more please do, there is no gift to small or to big.  Every dollar raised goes directly to the students and to enriching their educational opportunities and activities here at Mission College Preparatory Catholic High School.  May God richly bless you for your donation and partnership.

					<description><![CDATA[Monday marked the final match for the MCP Varsity Men's Golf team before next week’s League Championships. Two Royals, senior Luke Montoya, and junior Jake Long, both shot outstanding rounds of 70 (-2) to share medalist honors. Michael Carlson, a last-minute call-up from JV, contributed with a personal best score of 83. Their efforts helped the team achieve a season-best score of 400, securing a third-place finish. The varsity team currently ranks fourth in the Mountain League.

Additionally, Luke Montoya secured the Mountain League Cup for individuals and was named Mountain League MVP, having won five of the six regular-season matches.

This season, the Men's Golf team was composed of 14 players. The top performers, who consistently had the lowest scoring averages each week, earned spots on the varsity team, while JV players participated in over six matches.

Way to go Royals!]]></description>

This is incredibly rare in Mock Trial competition and we are very proud of Savita's hard work. Other individual award winners included: Sabrina Ornellas, Runner-Up for Prosecution Witness; Andy Tracy, Honorable Mention for Defense Attorney; and Avrum Kline, Honorable Mention for Defense Attorney. Congratulations to all!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This past Saturday, February 10th our MCP seniors really delivered with their commitment to serving our community through the People's Kitchen. MCP seniors served 105 meals to those in need and Brooks Burgers also made a large donation of chicken wings that supplemented the exceptional offers from the MCP senior families. They had enough donations for 2 servings. The number of people in need continues to grow, which highlights the need for all those on the People's Kitchen monthly lists to donate. We thank our MCP community for your support - your People's Kitchen PA Coordinators, Dave Jordan, Nick Harris, Holly Luban, Mark Wijsen, Kristina Takken, Melissa Derrick, and Tammy Paster.

Our fasting will run from 8:30am–2:40pm each day. We do not want to see any phones out at break, at lunch, during passing periods, in the hallways, in the bathrooms, etc. We hope this is a time for all of us to better connect. Let’s embrace this beautiful opportunity to be more engaged with one another.  Our Lenten phone fast will go up until Easter break. Wishing you all blessings on this Lenten journey.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Good Afternoon Royals Family - As I reaffirmed in my Royal Pride message last week, now is the ideal moment for us to seek out feedback from our parent partners.  We aspire to be a truly exemplary school, but we also realize that all schools have blind spots, areas for potential growth that are potentially known by parents and students, but not always known to school leaders.  
 
I ask that over the next several days all MCP parents would make the commitment to investing in just a few minutes of your time, to help us become an even more exceptional school.  We look forward to hearing from each of you.  This survey should take less than 15 minutes to complete. Please click on the link and make that critical investment in our growth.

As always, we thank you, everyone, for your support and partnership.  Survey results will be aggregated by the school and reported back to our community in the coming weeks.  
 
Yours in Christ,
Mike Susank]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[MCP is excited to announce that we would like to bring back our participation in the annual Catholic Youth Day in Anaheim.  Every year Catholic youth come together for the first day of LA Congress to meet other believers, celebrate mass together, listen to speakers, worship and fellowship.  This year Youth Day 2024 is on Thursday, February 15th at the Anaheim Convention Center.  The theme is "Your Path Awaits". We are sending out this "Interest Form" to see if our students are interested in pursuing this opportunity. Total cost to families for participation would amount to about $100/student (includes admission to Congress, transportation and hotel accommodations).  We would leave MCP after school on Wednesday, February 14th and return the evening of February 15th. In order to get an idea of the number of students who might want to participate we are inviting MCP students to fill out the linked google form. If you have questions or if you would like to volunteer as the Parent Coordinator, please email Mrs. Buresh at sburesh@missionprep.org.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This week, the AP Physics students were measuring the coefficient of static and kinetic friction of a wood block on a piece of plywood.  Students envisioned the idea for the apparatus, chose the supplies that they needed, and collaborated on the procedure in order to obtain their data.  Students will use statistical analysis in order to obtain the coefficient of friction.  Students will compare their results to accepted values and address any discrepancies using a thorough analysis of their procedure and apparatus. Way to go Royals!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[MCP is please to welcome our new World Literature instructor, Mr. Jim Micheletti. Mr. Micheletti is an excellent teacher with a plethora of experience, and we are so lucky to have him as a part of our team. While we know most of the students have their textbook (Foundations of Language & Literature) from last year, we have made a change and will no longer be using that text for World Literature. Instead, we will be using The Language of Literature, World Literature, from publisher McDougal Little and are asking you to purchase this book as soon as possible. Please understand this is not the norm, and we would not ask unless absolutely necessary.  We apologize for this inconvenience, as we understand it is late in the summer to be making a book change. There is a link to purchase options on the MCP booklist website. Click the link under World Literature. Please have this book with you in class by September 1. Thank you!]]></description>

				<link>http://www.missionprep.org/apps/news/article/1765182</link>
				<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.missionprep.org/apps/news/article/1765182</guid>
					<description><![CDATA[On the biggest stage of the year, MCP’s Men’s Golf team came through with an all-out team effort to grab 2nd place at the CIF Central Section Division 2 Golf Championship at Valley Oaks Golf Course in Visalia on May 9th.  The Royals came into the championship as the 5th place finisher in the Mountain League and had to overcome local favorites Sierra Pacific, Immanuel, and Lemoore.  At the end of the day MCP would outlast all but Mountain League's Santa Ynez who would finish on top as D2 champions - by a slim 5-stroke margin.
MCP got off to a strong start with Luke Montoya quickly getting to 3-under par and Landon Smith and Augustin Nguyen playing steady even par golf.  At one point on the back nine, the Royals were tied for first place.  Jake Long, AJ Jespen, and Ben Gingerich each played fantastic and their efforts helped keep the team in contention.  But when the final scores came in, it took Santa Ynez's number 5 player shooting a remarkable 75 to earn team victory for the Pirates.  When the team scores were tallied up after all players were finished Mission Prep's score of 400 was enough for a 2nd place tie with Lemoore.  However, the tie breaker for team runner-up goes to each team's number 6 player.  For the Royals that was Gingerich.  His 95 beat Lemoore's 101 - giving MCP 2nd place.
It was a fantastic finish for these Royals who peaked at the right time.  
Luke Montoya also finished runner-up in the individual competition with score of 2-under par 70.  Zack Tarter of Sierra Pacific earned medalist honors with 4-under par 68. 
Three Royals, Montoya (2nd), Smith (23rd), and Nguyen (25th) finished in the Top 25 of the combined Area, D3, and D2 tournaments and qualified for the next round of CIF playoffs - CIF CS Section Championship to be played next week at San Joaquin Country Club.]]></description>

				<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.missionprep.org/apps/news/article/1764292</guid>
					<description><![CDATA[In order for a student athlete to be cleared to play sports for next year, MCP needs both (1) the student's athletic clearance account to be opted into and (2) have a up-to-date physical on file with the school. The MCP Athletic Physical Night is by far the most convenient way for an athlete to be cleared for the 2023-2024 school year. This event is open to incoming MCP students as well as to returning student athletes. The cost for the physical is $25, and we can take cash/check at the door. We will also be taking electronic payments this year via our GoFan platform. You can pre-purchase your GoFan payment by clicking the link or we can help you process this at the door next week. Directions on how to  create/update your athletic clearance account for the 23-24 school year can be found on our website by clicking the story link. Please note that you will only be able to complete steps 1 and 2 if you are getting your athletic physical with us on May 17. We will complete step 3 -- upload and attach it for you. This will help us expedite the process if you create/update the account prior to next Wednesday. We will be scanning the completed physical before the athlete leaves campus that night to help ensure we can get them cleared in an expedited fashion and remove the burden of families needing to scan and attach the document. If you decide to get an athletic physical with your own doctor, you will need to complete step 3 and upload and attach it to your profile.]]></description>

The road to this CIF Division 3 Championships started on Monday when MCP defeated West (Bakersfield) 6-3.

					<description><![CDATA[MCP's Swimming team completed in the league finals this week and as coaches, we could not be prouder of these athletes.

For our girls - every race they swam in, they made it to the top 16 to swim during the finals session and score points for our team! Each girl set a PR in at least one of their races this season!
 
For the boys, almost each athlete made it back to the top 8, which allowed us to score even more points during the finals session. They too set PR’s this week which should qualify some of them to go to CIF. In addition, with only 7 boys present (versus 30-50 kids on each other team) we scored enough points to get 5th out of 8 teams! 

The MVP of the meet was Matthew Kenefick; placing top 5 in each of his individual events and leading both of his relays to a top 5 finish as well! 
We look forward to competing at CIF next week and progressing this swim program even further in the coming years. Thank you all for your continued support, we couldn’t do it without our MCP community! 

Sincerely, 
Coach Alec and Coach Andy]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Our Fall E-Sports team was incredible! They embodied the MCP spirit and attitude in the way they competed. As a team we competed in five different E-Sports: Fortnite, League of Legends, Rocket League, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, and Mario Kart. Each team took hold of our core values of love, loyalty, and level-up. As the coaching staff we could not be more prouder of the effort and energy they put into this season. 

Across our teams we had seven freshmen who stepped up to compete at the Varsity level and are looking forward to continued progress for the program. Each week we recognized a different athlete as our Royal Player of the Week who embodied our core values. The winners this year were: Caiden Marsalek (SSBU), Caiden Ways (RL), Kyson Hickman (LoL), Silas Walter (LoL), Landen Spaulding (RL), Thomas Beaudin (MK), and Jasper Harris (LoL). We also had a Player of the Season in Kyson Hickman who participated in two different games, RL and LoL, with incredible drive and positive attitude. He lifted up his teammates and made those around him better. Congratulations to all of our Players of the Week and to Kyson for Player of the Season. Go Royals!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Congratulating to senior Hsuan Wu who competed in her last match for the MCP Royals Women's Golf Team in the CIF Sectionals at San Luis Obispo Country Club on Monday 10/31/22.

Hsuan had a great run playing 9 holes in 3 over par.  Unfortunately, the lightning fast greens and a very competitive field of golfers were too much to overcome.  
Hsuan finishes with a remarkable career in Women's Golf.
2X First Team All League
2X 2nd Place All League Golfer
2021 Ocean League Champion
2X Advanced past the Division Round to the Sectional Round in CIF.

Hsuan has contributed greatly to our team with her golf.  But she will be remembered by her teammates and competitors for her wonderful, friendly personality and awesome smile.  

Hsuan has made her mark on MCP Women's Golf!!! Please join us in congratulating her.]]></description>

We invite you to join us in partnering with Catholic schools in the Fort Myers area in Florida. This town was one of the hardest hit areas in Florida after the recent hurricane. Bishop Verot High School alone has over 55 families who have completely lost their homes and most of the remaining families have significant damage. We are planning to “stuff” a moving truck and drive it across country to deliver the aid. Please consider donating the items listed to help our brothers and sisters in need on the other side of our country. Drop off locations are in the Mosaic Lobby or at the Football Game Entrance Gate.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This month's Royal Spirit Award recipient are Yana & Kevin Bender! The Royal Spirit Award is presented to an MCP volunteer who embodies the spirit of doing for others. Dawn Carly (last year’s PA President) presented the Royal Spirit Award to the Benders. "The Benders are a Power Couple. They were the 12th grade retreat coordinators and did a fantastic job; as well as the retreat coordinators for their class starting in 9th grade. They are a big baseball family and coordinated baseball senior night. They “man” the football gate even though none of their children play football. Stephanie Buresh spoke on their wonderful work with the retreat. Our school is truly blessed to have a family like the Bender."]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Our MCP Softball team got it done on Wednesday!  In the second inning, MCP was down 1-0, but the tide soon changed. In the bottom Hanford West moved their outfielders in to the dirt, assuming Mikaylee Gordon couldn't hit the ball hard. I guess they didn’t do their homework as she has multiple home runs this year. She proceeded to hit it over the outfielders heads to lead the inning off with a triple. Big Bats from Roxanne, Savannah, and the rest of the squad got the 3rd the Royals got on the board for the first time with 4 runs. We the ran away with the game ultimately winning 12-3. The Lady Royals look to defend their two seed against the Sierra Pacific Golden Bears today at 4:30 PM at Cuesta College. Go Lady Royals!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Mission Athletic Fund and Foundation is the new name of the former Boosters; but don't worry. The organization is still committed to athletics and extra curricular activities for both Old Mission School and Mission College Preparatory. Although we are associated with each school, the Mission Athletic Fund and Foundation is a standalone 501(c)(3). In other words, we collect revenue from our membership, sponsors and donors and we allocate those revenues directly to projects, events and needs at each school. We are continually speaking with coaches, athletic directors and other school leaders on what projects we can help, both short and long term projects. In the immediate future, we have identified the projects listed below.

*co-ed weight room - in an effort to make sure that our student athletes are as prepared as possible, the need has been identified for a renovated space, complete with new machines and weights. 

*scholarships - the 'Foundation' portion of the organization is always working with the each school to better assess what role we can play, along with our donors, to make educating existing and new students more affordable. 

*school spirit -from extra game day gear for athletes to rooter busses for away CIF games, the Athletic Fund wants to be there for the schools! Go Royals! Go Falcons!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Luke Montoya was fortunate to come away with a win this past weekend at the NCGA (Northern California Golf Asso.) Junior Tour. The tour hosts players throughout California with official golf handicaps of 4 and under. The win didn't come easy. Luke was 3 strokes behind the leader after day 1 and was chasing the leader throughout day 2. It wasn't until a near hole-in-one on hole 17 that he moved 2 strokes ahead. However, a double-bogey on the last hole nearly cost him the win. He won with 1 stroke to spar. Great job Luke!!!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[MathWorks Math Modeling Challenge is a contest for high school juniors and seniors in the U.S. and sixth form students in England and Wales. Through participation, students experience what it’s like to work as a team to tackle a real-world problem under time and resource constraints, akin to those faced by professional mathematicians working in industry.  The Challenge was 14 hours continuously and the teams submitted a report of their work at the end.

MCP had two teams that participated;
Team: Nicholas Llaurado, Shubhankar Naik, Spencer Riegler, Zach Schroeder, Amber Snook  and  Team: Beth Heffernan, Sophie Hilton, Eli Marslek, Levi Munster, Gautam Naik

Both teams did an amazing job of submitted a viable solution paper at the end of the 14 hours.  Only 113 of the 612 teams that submitted a viable solution paper, about 18.5%, go onto the second round of judging.  The team of Beth, Sophie, Eli, Levi, and Gautam are going on to the next round of judging.  They are MCP's first team to go onto the second round of judging.  Please keep them in your prayers.  
  
We are so proud of both teams!]]></description>

				<link>http://www.missionprep.org/apps/news/article/1580553</link>
				<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.missionprep.org/apps/news/article/1580553</guid>
					<description><![CDATA[The cost is free for MCP students who use the 5 Star Student App to check in. MCP students who do not have the App will be charged $5.00. 

Students will be able to enter the Saturday night dance at Bianchi Winery only from 8:00pm-8:30pm. Please plan accordingly.  You should make your dinner reservations early so that if anything gets delayed you can get to Bianchi Winery in Paso Robles before 8:30 pm. 

Our Roll-the-Dice policy will be in effect and we will be breathalyzing students both on entry to the dance and on exiting the dance.  We do not want to jeopardize the venue's alcohol license, so we must have evidence that our students were not drinking before the dance and did not sneak alcohol into the dance. Please make good decisions. 

On another note, Bianchi Winery is in a beautiful location and has a lovely shallow koi pond on the premises. The pond is very shallow and is a safety issue for the students and the koi.  Under no exceptions may any students enter or touch the water -- severe monetary and disciplinary consequences will result to any offenders.

You will not need to wear a mask on the dance floor because it is outside, but you will need to bring a mask for when you go inside the building. This is going to be an amazing night under the stars!!!

					<description><![CDATA[MCP has a reputation as a volunteer partner with People’s Kitchen of San Luis Obispo to reliably provide a delicious hot lunch once a month at the Prado Day Center. On Saturday, March 12, 2022, the Senior class has been asked to provide food for the lunch. The student coordinators, working with Stephanie Buresh in the Campus Ministry office, make up the accompanying food list that identifies the food item your student will provide on their assigned weekend. We are pleased to help the students continue our participation in this student run community service. We need your student to drop off their food item at the new Prado Center, 40 Prado Rd., San Luis Obispo, between 11:00-11:30 am on February 12th. The drop of location is at the back of the building. If your student wants to plan with others to pool the food drop-offs, by all means, go ahead. 

Please look for an email with more details or click the link to find the food drop off list on the Campus Ministry website page.]]></description>

After graduating from MCP, Ashleigh graduated from Bowdoin College in Maine, majoring in Economics and German, later receiving a Master’s degree in International Relations and International Economics from Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies. Ashleigh shared her experiences there along with her career in economics at the US Treasury Department, Citigroup and the International Monetary Fund. With child number two on the way, Ashleigh brought along the father of their children, Sergejs Saksonovs who has been at the IMF for over a decade after receiving his PhD in Economics from the University of Cambridge. In addition to the students enjoying their insights, the two of them look forward to making this an annual event.]]></description>

Contributions must be dropped off ONLY between 11:00-11:30 AM at the back entrance area off the parking lot.

					<description><![CDATA[The Sports Management class at MCP is in its second year with 12 students and our teacher Mr. Hitchen. As a class, we put together Instagram sports posts, set up the field and courts for home games, and help manage sporting events. Our goal is to spread recognition of Mission College Prep sports through social media, and help better prepare venues for our matches. Some examples of our success are the Christmas Classic basketball tournament, helping at football games, and football, soccer, golf, tennis, and volleyball social media posts during their seasons. Throughout our time here, we help create a healthier, greater sports world for our school, and continue to have successful sporting events from a sports management point of view. 
From, Sports Management Class]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[MCP football goes on the road for the first round of the Division II playoff bracket this afternoon against Lemoore High School. Football has had a historic season and we’re all rooting for our boys to continue that success against Lemoore. Last week against SLO High School, MCP beat SLO 35-7 to culminate a very special regular season. With that win, MCP football claimed the outright Ocean League title, beat SLO for the first time in school history, finished the regular season undefeated and clinched the highest and hardest playoff bracket in program history. MCP football is currently the highest-ranked team from the Central Coast in playoffs and is widely considered to be the best team period on the Central Coast this season. They have won their games by an average of 43 – 7, with 8 of the 9 games featuring defense giving fewer than 8 points. 

JV Football finished up the season against SLO High School on Friday and finished the season with an 8-1 record and also won the JV Ocean League Title outright, blowing out almost every team they played this year. JV football dealt with a lot of extra adversity with some COVID contact tracing issues at the start of the year but they quickly rebounded to have one of the most successful JV seasons in school history. 

MCP football has embodied their motto this year and has been “Uncommon” in every way. Congratulations to all and go get them tonight!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[CIF has entered into a partnership with GoFan as the only entity that will be selling tickets for CIF competition. To make life as simple as possible for all of us, MCP will now be offering the ability to buy home game tickets through GoFan. You should download their app on your cell as you will need this to redeem tickets at games. You can also access this ticket store through our MCP website from the Shop>MCP Game Tickets tab. You can also bookmark the MCP ticket store on GoFan's website.

Every playoff game we attend or host in the future will require that we purchase tickets through this platform. So it is in all of our best interest to try this sooner than later. 

Some away non-league and league opponents are already setup with GoFan and you will see those games on the GoFan site such as the Cabrillo Women's Volleyball Game on 9/13.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Football is playing in a brand new rivalry tonight against St. Francis (Watsonville). The two schools represent the end points of the Monterey Diocese. The trophy in the middle of the Mosaic Lobby was put together by Father Russ Brown and is a recreation of an original bell that hung at the Mission Church across the street. Every year, St. Francis and MCP will battle for the trophy and long – term, our goal is to have every fall sport competing against St. Francis, all on the same day, with the winning school taking home the trophy that year. We hope to have everyone out at the game TODAY and hope to make this a long and fruitful rivalry for both schools!]]></description>

				<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.missionprep.org/apps/news/article/1366154</guid>
					<description><![CDATA[With deepest sympathies, we regret to announce the passing of longtime SLO County pediatrician and MCP supporter, Dr. Louis Tedone. Dr. Tedone peacefully passed away on Sunday, January 10th at the age of 97. Dr. Tedone was SLO County’s first pediatrician and had a passion for making fresh mozzarella. You could see Dr. Tedone at various MCP events throughout the years including at the Annual Royal Dinner & Auction. He will be missed by all who knew him. His legacy of kindness and generosity will live on in the Grace and Lou Tedone MCP Memorial Fund, to benefit the students of Mission College Prep. Dr. Tedone called himself, “Lucky Louie,” but it is his friends and family who were the truly lucky ones for knowing him. May God’s warm embrace welcome Dr. Louis Tedone to eternal life. To contribute to the memorial fund please contact the MCP Business Office (caharris@missionprep.org).]]></description>
