Magnolia School District

From our great friends at Southern Arkansas University:

Good Afternoon!

As we near Halloween, we know that it is important to retain some bit of normalcy in a year that has challenged every bit of normal. We know that some have reservations about Trick or Treating and others want to make every occasion extra special because of all that has been lost this year. Either way, the Southern Arkansas University Athletic Department and the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee has you covered! All proceeds from this event, will be donated to Magnolia Specialized Services!

BOO MY YARD!

We will bring Halloween, and Trick or Treating, to you!

We are offering several different options, along with delivery within a 15 mile radius of SAU.
The last day to sign up is October 27, 2020

Please visit https://web.saumag.edu/boo/, or contact Sage Woodham (nswoodham@saumag.edu), for more information!

Happy Halloween!

REMOTE LEARNING FRIDAY

Beginning Friday, October 9, 2020, students in grades K-12 will pivot to a Remote Learning Day. Remote Learning Friday will continue through December 18, 2020. The purpose of Remote Learning Friday is to allow teachers time to work specifically with virtual students and to plan and prepare lessons for virtual and on-site students. This will benefit all students because it will improve the quality of instruction for both options.

The District realizes this could cause an inconvenience for parents; therefore, students have the option to attend in person. However, buses will not run morning or evening routes. Breakfast and lunch will be served on each campus for students in attendance and for those who just come on campus for meals.

Walker Pre-K will remain open on its regular schedule. As a reminder, buses will not run; therefore, parents will need to bring students to Walker Pre-K in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon.

For Remote Learning Plans for each school, please visit www.magnoliaschools.net. We appreciate your understanding and patience.
