Happy Rosh Hashanah!

-


 

            There will be no school on Monday, September 26th.              Happy Rosh Hashanah to all who celebrate! 


Fifth grade students, teachers, and parent chaperones enjoyed three days and two nights at AstroCamp this past week. Kirsten said, "It was amazing to be back at AstroCamp after being away for two years! The 5th graders did a bunch of cool science, saw tons of stars, and had a lot of fun." Teachers reported that the weather was beautiful and the kids had a great time. All agreed that it was a great trip. A huge THANK YOU to Kathryn for organizing this amazing trip, 5th grade teachers for keeping our students engaged and safe, and parent chaperones for helping ensure this trip went off without a hitch!! 

****VERY IMPORTANT: All 5th graders MUST upload a positive or negative rapid antigen test result to dailypass.lausd.net in order to be admitted to school on Tuesday. Please write the first and last name of the student and their date of birth on the photo before uploading. If you have any problems uploading, please email the photo to trk2932@lausd.net on Monday night.*******



SAFETY ON THE PLAYGROUND APPARATUS

Yikes! We've had three broken arms so far this year- all first graders who were playing on the upper yard monkey bars. For safety reasons, first graders will not play on the apparatus until January. By then, we hope they'll be a little taller and a little stronger. We'll see!



EARTHQUAKE KITS ARE DUE!

IMPORTANT REMINDER: Please send in your child's emergency earthquake kits as soon as possible.  We are preparing for the upcoming annual Great ShakeOut, and would like to make sure that all students have an earthquake kit on campus. Click here to go to our school website's "Documents and Forms" page where you will find the Earthquake Kit Letter.

AFTER-SCHOOL CARE

We are still hoping to find two wonderful people to run our after-school program through Beyond the Bell. If you know anyone who may be interested, please have them call our office or email me at trk2932@lausd.net. We count on our parents for a lot, and we're here again asking for your support in this. I have exhausted all of my options.   AND, we also still need TAs!

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
