REMINDER: Tomorrow, Wednesday, September 7th is picture day here at MHS.

*Teacher Spotlight* Coach Bakenhus is a valuable part of the MHS family! He says that his why for being an educator is "Building lifelong relationships and making an impact on my players and students. Hopefully, the same impact as my teachers and coaches had on me!" #BeElite

Magnolia High School will resume instruction on Tuesday, September 6th.

Mr. Ward even got a personal lasso lesson today!

Today at lunch, members from the SAU Rodeo Team taught some of our students how to rope an animal. Thank you for coming to share your skills with our students on our western spirit day!

Tomorrow wear your best western attire, so we can “lasso the eagles” in Crossett!

MAGNOLIA WELCOMES NEW TEACHERS AND STAFF

*Teacher Spotlight* Katie Herren teaches in our math department at MHS. Mrs. Herren says that "Once a panther, always a panther. I love getting the opportunity to teach at my alma mater! I love seeing kids find something they are excited about in math, especially if they come to me disliking the subject." We appreciate you, and love having you here at MHS!

The work-based learning students at MHS were joined this morning by employees from Bodcaw Bank. Kelly Fatherree, Aniya Banks, Kaitlyn O'Donnell, and Jenny Marie Whitehead spoke to our students about checking and savings accounts. Thank you for the cool sunglasses, and for teaching us how to write and endorse checks!

Mrs. Owens caught Mr. Ford doing something awesome today. "Some of the players in my room were stressing about tying their ties for the game tomorrow. Coach Ford came in and gave them lessons on how to do it. They are going to look sharp!"

REMINDER: Wear your panther red tomorrow!

MHS is looking forward to Friday night football. Here is a complete list of the spirit dress up days for this fall.

Magnolia High School is blessed with some of the best staff! Over this school year, we want to shine a light on these amazing educators who go above and beyond for our students here in Magnolia. Melissa Rowe teaches in our science department at MHS. Mrs. Rowe says that "My goal is to be the teacher I needed when I was younger and to share my love of science and learning with my students." We are proud to have you at MHS!
