Magnolia Junior Charity League would like to recognize Bodcaw Bank as a Platinum Presenting Partner for the 2020-2021 Backpack program sponsored by MJCL. These funds will be used to purchase food sacks for students enrolled in the Backpack food program in Columbia County schools and for the new Food Pantries for Middle & High school students. Last year, over 250 students were enrolled in the backpack program and over 1,000 bags were distributed in the summer program throughout the county at various pickup locations.
“We are so thankful for Bodcaw Bank joining us this year as a Presenting Platinum partner for our Backpack food program. We are looking forward to partnering with them in the future and are thankful for their support of MJCL this year.” -Anna Smith, MJCL 2020-2021 President
Each Friday, children in grades K-6 who are enrolled in the Backpack program receive easy to open food placed in their bag to take home for the weekend. This fall, MJCL has made an expansion of the Backpack program to include the new Food Pantry, after meeting with local school administrators. They expressed their concern for the older children in middle and high schools that face hunger every day. Each pantry is stocked with various snacks and meal options for students who administrators, teachers, coaches, and counselors feel need extra nutritional support.
Every year, MJCL partners with local churches to raise funds to support the Backpack program. This year, MJCL has been seeking additional local partnerships, such as the partnership with Bodcaw Bank, throughout the county to support the expansion of services for our children. MJCL looks forward to the opportunity of growing the Backpack and Pantry programs in the future to combat hunger in Columbia County.

Magnolia Middle School is excited to have a Free Little Library set up and ready to use. The library is available for students and the public to access free books to encourage literacy. Once a student needs to return a book, it can be brought to Mrs. Matthews to sanitize before it gets put back out. Happy reading!

The halls are alive with the sound of science! By making their own instruments, students can generate a variety of sound waves. Students explored the intensity and frequency of sound waves and how they relate to each other.

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

In order to assess the instructional needs of our students, we have given the MAP Growth test to all of our students. This test is given in reading, math, and science. The data from this test helps us better instruct each student based on how they perform on the test. We are planning a day for our virtual students to come to campus to take these tests. Students will be tested in the auditorium where they will have plenty of room to social distance while testing. Masks will also be worn the entire time during testing.
Testing will be Tuesday, October 20th in the auditorium from 8:30-12:00. Students will need to be dropped off and picked up at the side door of the auditorium. Each student will need to bring his or her fully charged school issued laptop, charger, and a mask. Any student who does not complete testing may return the following day at the same time to complete testing.
