MAC Boosters is an organization of LCC Parents and individuals committed to raising funds to support the educational needs of students aimed primarily at the classroom. MAC operates within the La Costa Canyon High School Foundation. 100% of all funds that are raised and donated are directed to the classroom through an annual mini-grant process.
MAC Boosters also supplies all classrooms with Care Packages at the beginning of the academic year with necessities like tissues and office supplies. Please give generously as your student will benefit!
New parent members are always welcome. MAC Boosters meets the first Monday of each month at 6:30pm in the Conference Room of the Administration Building. (Click here for meeting schedule.)
Funding for the mini-grants comes through donations and successful partnerships with companies in our community. A portion of all business from LCC students is donated to the MAC fund. Please support LCC Academics by doing business with our partners!

Driver Training Classes LCC has partnered with Miracosta College to offer driver’s training classes and behind-the-wheel on LCC’s campus. Please click here for fall dates.
The mini-grant process works follows:
MAC Boosters has a liaison for each department at LCC. The liaison serves as a representative to their specific LCC Academic department. They meet with the department, or teachers individually, to identify, support, and communicate the needs to MAC Boosters. The teacher/department can apply for a mini-grant. Each mini-grant request is reviewed by the MAC Boosters. Approved grants are purchased for the classroom. In 2009-2010, MAC granted 34 grants for items including calculators, language DVDs, a classroom theatre system and something as basic as butcher paper.
Since 2008, classroom support to the teachers has totaled OVER $40,000. 100% of donations go to classroom supplies.
