MAGNET COVE

As part of a coordinated response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Division of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) in partnership with the Office for Education Policy (OEP) at the University of Arkansas has developed this Parent/Guardian Survey<https://uark.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6X7aRF3ErNNXFel> for soliciting family input on what is working now and what may be considered for the future.

Parent Survey purpose

The survey seeks to involve families in an organized, ongoing and timely way in planning, review, and improvement. The survey—which will remain open until NOVEMBER 20th—will provide feedback regarding:

* family concerns

* how families are making decisions

* family awareness of options and resources available

* family considerations for the future

Exciting news!  As of September 3, 2020, the Magnet Cove School District will provide FREE school breakfast and lunch meals for all Magnet Cove enrolled onsite and virtual students. This waiver does not include second meals, additional milks or a la carte items. Funding for the meals will be provided through a waiver issued by the USDA. This waiver will end once funding has been exhausted or on December 31st, whichever comes first.  

Even though all students will be provided free meals while this waiver is in effect, we still need every household to turn in a free and reduced lunch application. Click here to access the application. If you need a paper copy, please call your child’s building at the numbers listed below and we will gladly send an application home with your student.

Elementary office: 501-337-9131

COVID-19 Information

Magnet Cove School District follows the guidance of the Arkansas Department of Health. Per this guidance at this time, we do not share the campus or district number of positive cases. Both FERPA and HIPAA allow the sharing of information to the public health agency in an imminent threat or emergency.  We provide this data to the Arkansas Department of Health and these numbers are included in their data. Some school level data is provided via their website, but anything less than 5 becomes identifiable.  https://achi.net/covid19/

We have a Point of Contact identified to be our liaison with the Arkansas Department of Health and a process in place to help minimize the risk in our school. The Arkansas Department of Health is identifying confirmed cases on the county level.  If there are cases associated with students or staff in the school district, the student or staff member will be notified by the POC and health department officials.  For the privacy of students and staff, the district will not be sharing any information unless a student/staff member is identified as a Probable Close Contact to a person testing positive for COVID-19.  We are committed to provide the safest learning environment and will follow the guidance provided by the CDC and the Arkansas Department of Education in conjunction with the Arkansas Department of Health. However, if you are overly concerned, we do offer a 100% Virtual Learning Option for the students in our district.

Thank you for all of your help and patience!  PANTHER PRIDE RUNS DEEP! 

We appreciate and recognize the history of our elementary school and all of our campuses. With construction of the new elementary school to soon begin, portions of our beloved rock wall located on the north side of our campus will be torn down. Our plan is to repurpose the salvageable rocks and all other historical aspects of the current elementary school into the new elementary school where appropriate and feasible. We appreciate and understand that many of our patrons hold sentimental attachment to our present elementary school building and the rock wall.

In the future we plan to provide an opportunity for our community members to obtain a little piece of Magnet Cove history by picking up a rock or brick from the building. We will notify those interested prior to the disposal of any of these sentimental materials. We look forward to merging the history of Magnet Cove Elementary School with its future!
