A California Distinguished School

Read the official announcement from State Superintendent O'Connell here. 

 

Magruder Middle School celebrates the distinction as a California Distinguished School! 

Our professional learning community provides outstanding teachers, a caring and supportive staff, and a safe learning environment for your children. We are dedicated to provide an opportunity for all students to participate in a California Standards based curriculum, with high rigor, that prepares them for success in high school and beyond!

 As a result of our dedication, Magruder is celebrating the highest gains in our test score history! This year we celebrate an API score of 835!

 Parents and family members are an integral part of our learning community. Instill the value of education by making sure your child arrives each day on time, help them with homework, and talk with them about ideas and topics that they’re studying in school. Please read to your children, regardless of their age, as this is one of the best ways to foster their love of reading while building their skills.

 Get involved with our school! Your involvement makes a difference to your child. I strongly encourage you to join the Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA), participate in our Operation Observation days, and join us for our Back to School Night and Open House.

 It is a privilege for me to serve this community. I am happy to be a part of the Magruder Family.

 Please feel free to contact me at mvoigt@tusd.org or (310) 533-4527.
