Parent Teacher Conferences
Please give leadership feedback regarding our recent conferences.
Advisory Period
Magee has made small modifications to it's master schedule. We have added 20 minutes onto 4th period for Thursday and Friday. This "advisory" time will be used for all students to work on targeted IXL lessons in their Chromebook. The math department is specifically assigning certain lessons that they consider to be "foundational" skills for the current units they are teaching.
21st Century After School Program
During Parent Teacher Conferences, please encourage parents to sign their student up for our after school program.
