News & Announcements
Ms. Angie Fenton Named Cobb County Teacher of the Year!
The entire McClure community is proud of Ms. Fenton's being named Cobb County Teacher of the Year.  The surprise announcement came today during our Renaissance kick off celebration.  Marching drumlines from Kennesaw Mountain & Harrison high schools, and a couple of red hot sports cars helped usher in the big news.  Feel free to congratulate Ms. Fenton at angela.fenton@cobbk12.org!

CRCT Results
If you were not able to pick up your child's CRCT results during the assigned days in June, you may pick them up the week of August 4th during regular office hours.

Can You Lend a Hand for McClure?
If you are already a part of the McClure family, you probably know that there are four words that drive all we do: Enthusiasm, Excellence, Encouragement and Ingenuity.  If you are new to our family, we welcome you and look forward to getting to know you in the upcoming year.  Our teachers and staff are the most enthusiastic you will find as they encourage our students to excel and to be the best they can be!  They use ingenuity on a daily basis in order to provide the best education possible for our students. Before the end of the year we asked our teachers what they might need to make the 08-09 school year even better.  A wish list has been created, and we would appreciate any support you, your family or your business may be able to provide.  Please click here to see the wish list and thank you in advance for your support.

SPLOST Information is Available
SPLOST III information is available on the Cobb County School District website.  You can watch an information video on the main site or go to the SPLOST website for more specific information.  To see what improvements are proposed for McClure, scroll down to #10 on the SPLOST website and click on facility summary.

Summer Reading:
Did you know that students can lose up to one grade level of reading skills over the summer months? The McClure Summer Reading Challenge will ensure that students are practicing this important skill in order to maintain reading levels.  Summer Reading will also help students get an early start on meeting the Million Word Georgia Performance Reading Standard.  Every student entering McClure for the 2008-09 school year is required to read two to three books (300 – 450 pages) over the summer months.  The best part about this year’s summer reading program is that students can choose ANY books that interest them!  A suggested list of authors is provided on the McClure Summer Reading Challenge Brochure.

How will your teacher know what the student read?  Each of you should maintain a Reading Log, detailing what you've read, when you read it, and what your thoughts were while reading.  In addition, each of you  will present your favorite book as a Book Talk upon returning to school in August. Just remember to choose books that are on your reading level (see your CRCT scores for Lexile levels)! We also have provided you with a bookmark with lots of helpful advice on being a successful Summer reader! Happy reading!
