Counselor's Corner
We are thankful for you being part of our school community! The world is changing quickly, and we want to do everything we can to help students be successful in school and life.
We are excited to tell you that we will be using a program called PurposeFull People this year. We believe that students should have safe, predictable places to learn where they feel included. Students should have healthy and helpful connections with teachers and classmates. They should also experience learning that will help them tackle challenges inside and outside of school. PurposeFull People is more than a set of lessons - it is a partnership between schools and families to create a place where students feel like they belong and learn skills that will help them be the best they can be!
PurposeFull People has three main goals for students: Be Kind, Be Strong, and Be Well.
- Be Kind: Social Skills like listening, friendship, solving conflicts, and leadership. These skills are taught alongside Empathy, Respect, & Cooperation.
- Be Strong: Skills that help students focus, stay organized, and set goals. These skills are taught alongside Responsibility, Courage, & Perseverance.
- Be Well: Skills that help students handle their emotions and deal with stress. These skills are taught alongside Gratitude, Honesty & Creativity.
I am looking forward to working with you. If at any time you need my assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me at (281) 356-6866 or at cgonzales@magnoliaisd.org. I am here to serve ALL students.
With gratitude,
Mrs. Gonzales

Friendly Reminders
Transportation Changes
All transportation changes must be made by 2:45 pm every day so that we can ensure that your child's teacher receives the notification on time and that we can follow through with your request. No changes will be accepted after this time. All changes must be made by sending a note or calling the front office at (281) 356-6866. Changes can not be made through your child's teacher. Our teachers are teaching and supervising children until 4:00. They may not have time to check their messages before the end of the day, For this reason, all changes must go through the office.
Early Student Pick Up
Early student check outs must be done by 3:00 pm.
Drop off times
Doors on the Buddy Riley side of the building are open for regular drop off from 7:45 am until 8:25 am. Students dropped off after 8:25 am will need to enter through the front doors by the flag pole.
