Magness Creek Elementary Staff News

Week of May 13, 2024

We are entering the last two weeks of the school year with our students. It can be overwhelming, but try your best to enjoy the last moments with your kiddos. You didn't get in this profession to fill out report cards and prepare a room for carpet removal--your whys are what make Magness Creek so beautiful!

I will send out a carpet removal plan after I meet with Justin Skidmore and Aaron Reed on Monday morning at 8:30. I also have a zoom information meeting regarding it as well on Wednesday, so there may be more information to share.

Mrs. Camp has done an amazing job managing all the testing in all the grade levels for the last month, and I will notify the fourth grade teachers when we are ready for tickets to be placed in cups for the drawings of prizes for ATLAS testing. It will be this week!!

Senior Walk is Tuesday. We will make an announcement to let you know when to report to your places in the hallway. Activity teachers will be in charge of the class they have at that time.

End of year checkout procedures will be gone over in team meetings. Tuesday team meetings will be moved to Thursday. This will be the last week for LEAD for students.

The Talent Show is set for Friday at 8:30. Activity teachers will cover the classes they have at that time.

From Mrs. Allen on Report Cards: Grades should be entered by noon on the 22nd so they can be sent home with students on the last day of school, Friday, May 24th. If a teacher needs more time to complete assessments, they technically have until the 24th to get their information entered. You will need to work out a plan to get the report card to that parent/guardian.

We are required to complete a permission slip for bounce houses this year. Those will go home with students on Monday. Due to a serious accident from a bounce house in the district, we will no longer be having them at school events after this last hurrah.

It was so fun seeing our teachers get appreciated last week! I hope you know how much you are loved! To launch you into a week of feeling all the love: "Teachers have three loves: love of learning, love of learners, and the love of bringing the first two together."

Weekly Meetings

Team Meetings: All team meetings held on Tuesday will be held on Thursday this week. Wednesday team meetings will remain the same. We will be going over the end of the year checklist.

LEAD Collaboration: This is the last week for LEAD for students. Teachers, you should utilize this time to work on finalizing report card information. Next week we will be utilizing our activity teachers to help with end of year check out to dos for the building.
