Ambassador Program

Applications now being accepted for Fall 2026 and Spring 2027 

The MCCSC Strong Schools, Strong Community Ambassador Program is an engaging, four-month experience designed to strengthen partnerships between the school corporation and the broader Bloomington/Monroe County community. The program allows ambassadors to deepen their understanding of MCCSC schools, learn how they operate, and learn how to effectively share the MCCSC story with our community as advocates.

The program is an immersive experience, designed to give ambassadors a chance to participate in engaging activities to learn about schools and day-to-day school operations. The program also gives MCCSC administration the opportunity to hear various perspectives, listen, and learn.

Ambassadors will also be invited to become active attendees of MCCSC school events to get to know our community of students, staff, and families.
