Magnolia School District is proud to announce that Dr. Albert Schweitzer, Dr. Peter Marshall, Dr. Jonas Salk, Juliette Low School of the Arts, Robert M. Pyles STEM Academy and Walt Disney schools were named as 2018-19 California Honor Roll schools by Educational Results Partnership, a data science organization which recognizes high-performing, achievement gap-closing schools across the state.

Schweitzer's Spring Carnival was a huge success! Families and friends came to enjoy the music, performances, food, and games. Schweitzer's PTA put on the carnival with support from teachers, parents, and volunteer students from Dale Junior High and Magnolia High School.

Dr. Albert Schweitzer School held a Science Experience Parent Workshop led by Mr. Esau Perez, School Readiness Community Liaison. The focus of the workshop was learning science through fun interactive activities so parents can assist the students at home. Due to the high parent turnout please be on the lookout for more workshops in the upcoming school year!

Dr. Albert Schweitzer parents participated in Math workshops where they visited the classrooms to play math games or work on mathematical problems with their children. The workshops were led by the Instructional Practices Coach, Parent Involvement Liaison and School Principal. The parents were able to see different ways students express their mathematical knowledge -- it was a great time of learning and fun!

The 2019 Magnolia School District Spelling Bee was a memorable one! The rain may have delayed the Bee, but it certainly did not stop it. The two top spellers from each of our 9 schools participated in the very intense competition. Students successfully spelled words such as extravaganza, gregarious, capricious and cauliflower.

On Saturday, December 8, almost 350 fourth through sixth grade students attended a four hour Saturday School session. Offered for the first time in Magnolia School District, this four hour session was designed to provide students with fun, engaging learning activities while making up some lost learning time from being absent.

Magnolia School District continues to thrive in the area of Technology. Recently teams from Dr. Albert Schweitzer, Robert M. Pyles STEM Academy, and Mattie Lou Maxwell Schools participated in the FIRST Lego League Robotics competition. Each team had to design a robot to perform various tasks on the competition board. The teams scored points based on how many tasks they completed as well as their individual robot design. In the robot game Maxwell School placed 7th, Schweitzer was only one point behind in 8th and Pyles’ first-year team had a good showing at 17th.
