Don't Let Bullying Go Unnoticed
Each of us has a responsibility to prevent bullying behavior. If you are aware of a bullying situation please report it to an adult in the building. If you would rather, you can complete the Bullying Incident Report form and return it to school. The form is available in the academic wings as well. You can make a difference by reporting bullying. You can also click on the link to the left to learn about more school district resources. Please help us make McClure a bully free zone.

Reading & Math Inventories

This year the Cobb County School District will utilize the Scholastic Reading Inventory (SRI) College & Career edition and the Scholastic Math Inventory (SMI) College & Career edition. The Scholastic Reading Inventory (SRI) College & Career edition is a classroom-based assessment designed to evaluate students’ reading ability, monitor student reading progress, set goals for reading growth, and match students to books at their reading level. The Scholastic Math Inventory (SMI) College & Career edition is a classroom-based assessment that measures mathematics achievement and growth from Kindergarten through Algebra II. The SMI is designed to evaluate students’ mathematics performance, monitor their progress, and set goals for instruction. McClure Middle School will be administering the SRI and SMI during the months of August, December and April. These assessments are strictly diagnostic and will not count for a grade in any class.

A Public Safety Reminder about Fire Lanes at McClure
Per the Fire Marshall's Office, no one is allowed to park in a Fire Lane, whether there is a driver in the vehicle or not, at any time other than the following:

30 minutes prior to the end of the school day and 30 minutes after the end of the school day (this does not include the After School Program nor any other activity at the school)
passengers actively loading or unloading during the day (this would cover students unloading in the morning at the beginning of the school day)

We need to reemphasize that the only time a vehicle would be allowed in a Fire Lane would be to actively drop-off and/or pick-up a student when there is no waiting. Other times, such as after school activities would not be included. If you are in violation of the ordinance, you run the risk of being ticketed. Should you have questions or concerns, please contact the Department of Public Safety (678) 594-8620.

Teacher of the Year

Mr. Ryan Limpert
6th Grade Science Teacher

Congratulations to Mr. Ryan Limpert our 2016 TOTY. Professor Limpertstein can be found rapping about earth science or helping an avid group of future meteorologists learn the difference between cumulous or cirrus clouds on a daily basis in the 6th grade. One thing is for sure, he is always working hard to make sure that his students are prepared for the challenges that lie ahead!

Congratulations Ryan on being a model for all of our teachers!
