        First Day of School - Monday, August 14, starts at 8:07 a.m.


Welcome to the 2023-24 school year! Campus opens for students at 7:30 a.m. Parents are welcome to accompany their students to classrooms on the first day of school. Staff will be on hand to meet unaccompanied students at valet and the busses and escort them to their classrooms. Teachers will be available to meet students outside of their classrooms at 7:45 a.m. Classroom instruction will begin promptly at 8:07 a.m., so teachers will be closing their classroom doors at that time. All parents who are on campus will be asked to leave the classroom areas and join us at the front of the school for coffee, refreshments, and another Meet & Greet opportunity. This is a great time to meet the parents of your child's classmates and bus companions and exchange contact information.

If you bring your child late on the first day of school, please check them in at the main office. If they are new, a staff member will be on hand to walk them to class. Here is the dismissal schedule for the first week:
    Monday, August 14 - 2:30 dismissal (regular)
    Tuesday, August 15 - 1:30 dismissal (early out every Tuesday)
    Wed., August 16      - 2:30 dismissal (regular)
    Thurs., August 17    - 2:30 dismissal (regular)
    Friday, August 18    - 12:45 dismissal (minimum day)


This year we will hold all school events in person unless otherwise noted. Morning assemblies will be on the upper yard every Friday morning at 8:15. beginning August 25th. Parents are welcome to attend but must exit campus immediately following the assembly unless attending a meeting, workshop or other school business. In these cases, parents must sign in at the main office. If attending Teatime,                                                                                                parents may sign in at Room 23.

    BEHAVIOR EXPECTATIONS ASSEMBLIES
    Behavior Expectations Assemblies are held at the beginning of each semester to teach and remind students of appropriate behavior at school. We expect that all students follow these basic rules at all times everywhere on campus and on the busses:

                    • Be Safe
                    • Be Respectful
                    • Be Responsible
                    • Be Trustworthy

    IMPORTANT FOR ALL FAMILIES!!!

    All parents, new and returning, must complete a Household Income Form (HIF) to maximize our school's funding for the next 4 years. In order to qualify for the 4 years of funding, we must have all applications for new and returning students completed by October 30, 2023. Please click here to complete the form online.




    IMMUNIZATION COMPLIANCE

    All students enrolled in California schools must present immunization records or medical exemption documentation upon admission to school unless there are special circumstances. In order to assist parents in providing immunization records, LAUSD has launched Vive's Immunization Assistant Tool. Parents must have a Parent Portal account to access this helpful tool. (Click here to watch a quick video on how to create a Parent Portal account.)  The state of California no longer allows religious or personal belief exemptions (Health and Safety Code section 120325). Only medical exemptions are allowed.

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
