Student Info

A number of students are being checked out a few minutes early, particularly on Fridays.  We are concerned about this trend for several reasons, the most important being that students are not receiving their full instructional minutes.  Quite often, students visit the Computer Lab, Library, MPR or are out at P.E. in the afternoons and the office staff has to spend time locating them.  Please do not shortchange your childs education; plan ahead to have enough time to pick your child up from our drive-through lane.

Recycling

 Malcom recycles! Bring your plastic bottles and aluminum cans for collection on Mondays and on Wednesdays. Drop offs are located in the green recycle cans on... more

Jamba Juice

Jamba Juice Thursday's are back. Join us after school for your favorite drinks. Prices are $2 for small and $4 for large. We can also raise money for Malcom by visiting Jamba Juice in the Ocean Ranch Shopping Center. No flyer necessary!!! Just go there and mention Malcom and they will do the rest. Send your family, friends and neighbors. It's that easy.

Halloween Candy Collection

Malcom's next Kids in Community Service (KICS) event will be: Trick or Treat, Sweets for the Sweet!

Please bring in all of your unwanted Halloween candy.

There will be a collection box on the stage each morning (during the week of November 2nd thru November 6).

Candy will be donated to Father Serra's Food Pantry and used for holiday stocking stuffers.
 
Thank you for sharing and caring.

Student Drop Off-Pick Up

Please review our Student Drop-Off/Pick-Up Procedures in an effort to maintain a safe environment for all our Malcom children and ensure a smooth start of school:

No Cuts

This is something every school child knows, but it seems that parents may need some reminders!  When you are driving through our carpool lane, whether to drop off or pick up, please DO NOT pull out and cut back in again further up.  Rather, please wait for the line to move.  The potential for an accident is greatly increased if cars are pulling in and out along the driveway.  Patience is a virtue!  Thank you for your cooperation.

Parking Lot Spaces

All of the spaces in the Malcom parking lot are assigned, with the exception of a couple of visitor spots and the handicapped spots. The visitor spots are not intended for parents to drop of their children and remain on campus each morning. Please use street parking if you are going to be on campus for more than a few minutes. Additionally, last year, the Friends of Malcom auctioned off a parking spot to a family for their use for the 2009-10 school year. The spot is marked “Reserved for Auction Winner.” This applies to all times that school is in session as well as during special school events, such as Back to School Night, Family Science Night, Open House etc. We want to be able to have this auction on a yearly basis, and the winner should not ever have to park elsewhere because someone is in their spot!

Crosswalks

 Parents and students have been observed crossing Ridgeway in the middle of the block. PLEASE make a point of using the crosswalks! Not only does this make your travel to and from school safer, it sets a GOOD EXAMPLE for your children!


Dogs on Campus

 Please do not bring any dogs on to the campus at any time.  Thank you for respecting this rule.
