Dear CMCS Parents, Students, and Friends,

 

June 2020. Two weeks remaining in this school year. Here are things to know and remember:

 

·      Collection/Distribution Schedule: I have emailed detailed instructions on how we will be collecting school property and distributing student belongings on June 8, 10, 11, and 12. You will receive a couple of reminders before then, so please check your email.


·      Fifth Grade Culmination: Plans are in the works and the pre-recorded ceremony will be posted on June 9 at 4:00. Details will be coming from Kathryn and the Culmination Committee. Again, monitor your emails for updates and reminders.


·      Enrollment: We are so excited to welcome our new families and new students to CMCS. Enrollment documents may be downloaded here and completed. Please return the documents by driving them to campus, Tuesday-Thursday, 9-12, from now through June, or sending through mail. Due to security and privacy concerns, we discourage sending these documents by email.


·      Devices: We are encouraging students to keep devices through the summer whether or not they will be using them for summer school. The exception is for first and fifth grade students who need to return their devices on their scheduled collection/distribution time or, if using for summer school, as soon as summer school ends so that we may prepare them to be turned over for the new school year. If you’d rather turn in your device rather than keeping it through the summer, that’s fine. Please do so during your scheduled collection/distribution time.

o   Broken devices: you may email me (trk2932@lausd.net) to arrange for a replacement device. However, you will need to pay the approximate $121 cost of repairing the broken device. If you have turned in a broken device, you will receive a bill soon.

o   Inoperable devices: some devices seem to stop charging or working altogether. If this is the problem, you may email me (trk2932@lausd.net) to arrange for a temporary loaner device. I will send the device to LAUSD’s IT department for repair and will exchange it for the loaner once it has been repaired. There will be no charge. If you have turned in an inoperable device, you may email me to pick up your repaired device and return the loaner.


·      CFF Elections: Don’t forget to vote this week. Please check your Fresh School emails for more information.

 

I hope you are able to enjoy the summer and look forward to a fresh new school year beginning on August 18, 2020.

 

Best,

Principal Toni

Enrichment Block Begins This Week!

  ENRICHMENT BLOCKS BEGIN THIS WEEK! Dear Community Families, WHEW!! What a week! It was an exciting one and we're so happy to have students back on campus. We now have a week under our belts- students know where their classrooms are, who their teachers are, and their bus assignments. Teachers have taught classroom systems and procedures, and we've taught our expectations for behavior during behavior assemblies.  On Thursday, we practiced our first fire and earthquake drills of the year. We learned how to evacuate quickly and quietly to the upper yard and how to drop, cover, and hold in the classroom. We held our first Morning Assembly on Friday. Each week, teachers select one student to be recognized as the Student-of-the-Week at the Morning Assembly. These students receive certificates to acknowledge their achievement and are invited to select a prize from the Treasure Box. Staff members issue Kindness Counts coupons are given to students who show kindness and good citizenshi

  Dear Community Families, The first day of school is here! There will be a lot happening at school this week to kick off the new year.  All parents are welcome to join us for a Meet & Greet after walking your student to their classroom on the first day of school. CFF will provide light refreshments as you meet and mingle with other parents and CMCS staff. Meet us on the Room 1 yard at 8:10am. Our Beginning-of-Year Assessment windows open this week so your child will be taking diagnostic tests in reading (DIBELS for Gr. K-2 / iReady for Gr. 3-5) and math (iReady for all grade levels). Teachers will use these results to determine classroom small group instruction, after-school intervention groups, advanced math groups, and tutoring groups. As of last school year, LAUSD requires students to complete 30-45 minutes of iReady Personalized Learning per week. Your child's teacher may ask that some of these required minutes be completed at home. Join me Friday, August 16 at TeaTime wi

Welcome to the 2024-25 School Year

  Dear Community Families, Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year at Community Magnet Charter School! This summer flew by quickly, but I hope you enjoyed time with your families and friends. I am very happy to have spent a week visiting Toronto with my family. It just so happened that we were there for Canada Day (similar to our Fourth of July) and the Toronto Jazz Festival! In addition to spectacular fireworks, top-notch dining, and wonderful jazz music, we witnessed the awesomeness of the beautiful Niagara Falls. It was a fun-packed week and I left with a special place in my heart for Toronto! Speaking of fun-packed, Community was buzzing with fun for most of the summer. We hosted the Kids 4 College Summer Camp, Camp Invention, BSAP Summer Bridging Program and Kinder Camp! This week will be even busier, but without the kids and not so fun. Albert and Rick will complete the final campus cleaning. Office staff will finalize classroom assignments (to be completed by August 8th) and enroll
