MVCTC uses multiple forms of communication to keep parents and families informed.

Email and text messaging are our primary methods for general communication, so please ensure your contact information is up to date when completing student forms. Automated phone calls will be used for urgent or time-sensitive messages, such as weather delays, closings, and emergencies.

Daily Announcements

MVCTC regularly receives updates from our partner districts about events, activities, and important dates. Daily announcements are shared with students through MVCTC email, displayed on the screens in the Multipurpose Activity Center (MAC) during lunch, and available to check on the website.

These announcements are a great way for students to stay informed and connected while attending MVCTC.

Ohio House Bill 96 mandates that by January 1, 2026, all public-school districts 
must adopt a policy banning all student use of personal communication devices 
(i.e., cell phones) during the instructional day. 

Effective as of the start of the second semester, Tuesday, January 6, 2026, students will not be permitted to use cell phones during the instructional day. 

Key points:

• Prohibits all cell phone use beginning at 8:05 a.m. through the end of the school day at 2:30 p.m., including hallways, between classes, and the restroom
• Smartwatches may be worn but not be used for any unauthorized purpose during the instructional day
• Students are permitted to use their cell phones during the following times:
  • During their lunch period, once inside the Multipurpose Activity Center (MAC) and put away when departing for class
  • While riding in school vehicles
  • As authorized by staff during instructional time or school-related events/functions
• Violation of this policy will result in progressive disciplinary action as listed:
  • Detentions
  • In-School Reassignment
  • Out-of-School Suspension
  • Expulsion 

Students with documented needs, such as those outlined in an IEP, 504 Plan, or 
medical documentation from a physician, may still access or use their device for their learning or health needs, as documented in the plan. Students with documented exceptions should contact their MVCTC principal for more information.

We encourage families to discuss this policy together and prepare accordingly before the second semester begins. If you need to contact your child during the school day, please call our main number at 937-837-7781.

MVCTC is a public school, and there is no tuition to attend. However, to provide a high-quality, hands-on education that prepares students for their future careers, some programs include additional costs in student fees. These fees cover essential materials, tools, and experiences necessary for learning.

Each year, MVCTC carefully evaluates program fees to keep costs as low as possible. We seek cost-effective alternatives and include only items vital to student success. We also recognize that fees can be a financial challenge for some families, and we are committed to working with students and families to find solutions.

The Student Notebook Access Program (Sn@p) at MVCTC was one of the first initiatives in the state designed to ensure that every student has access to a personal computer to enhance their learning experience. This program provides students with the technology they need to succeed in their career-technical and academic courses, fostering digital literacy and innovation. To support students, the Sn@p Desk, located in the Student Foyer, offers assistance with troubleshooting, repairs, and general technology needs, ensuring that devices remain functional and accessible throughout the school year.
