ATTENTION PARENTS & STUDENTS
A new district-wide cell phone policy takes effect THIS school year. No student shall possess on his/her person any cell phone, smartwatch, or similar electronic communication device, camera, MP3 player, iPod, or other portable music device during school hours. A telephone/electronic communication device found in the possession of a student during the school day will be seized by school personnel and returned only to the parent/guardian according to campus policy. Repeated offenses could result in disciplinary actions or confiscation of the device for the remainder of the school year.
** Students who have an electronic device may choose to leave it in their cars or have it in their backpack. If the device is left in the student's backpack it must be on silent or turned off during school hours.**

While main road conditions improve, less traveled roads, sidewalks and parking lots remain too icey to safely return to school. Low temperatures overnight will cause refreezing as well. We will remain closed on Thursday. Stay warm!




School will remain closed on Wednesday, Jan. 17, due to inclement weather and poor road conditions. Stay Warm.

Due to inclement weather, we will not have school on Tuesday, Jan. 16. Plans for Wednesday will be announced tomorrow. Any make-up days will be announced at a later date. Stay warm!

The love of reading is contagious, and learning opportunities abound when schools and communities partner together to focus on building a culture of reading for their students, families, and community. Because of their outstanding school/community collaboration, the Arkansas Department of Education recently recognized seven cities as R.I.S.E Communities for 2022-2023.
ADE’s Reading Initiative for Student Excellence, or R.I.S.E. Arkansas program, encourages reading beyond just the classroom and sets a goal to create communities and schools that promote a culture of reading for residents of all ages.
To be eligible for the recognition, schools and communities submitted a letter of commitment, developed an action plan, and provided a portfolio that showed evidence of implementation throughout the year. Applications were then scored using a rubric. There was one factor that each recognized community had in common: dedication to promoting the love of reading.
The only community and district to be recognized a Gold-Level winner twice is Magnolia. Magnolia submitted the maximum number of ten literacy events in their application for the award. These events promoted the importance of creating a culture and love of reading and collaboration among the schools and community. Friday, December 8, a celebration was held at the Magnolia Performing Arts Center. Representatives from the Arkansas Department of Education presented Superintendent John Ward, District Curriculum Coordinator Penny Talley, and the state and community partners with the award.
The District appreciates the support provided by the community and businesses of Magnolia. Without the donated funds and time from these collaborating partners, the literacy events and winning the R.I.S.E. Community Award would not be possible.
