This page is maintained by the Jonesboro Math & Science PATHS (Parents and Teachers Helping Students). Students at Math and Science Magnet experience the challenge and excitement of a practical, hands-on learning approach to science while learning problem solving and abstract thinking. A well-equipped science lab provides a unique learning environment available to all 1st – 6th grade students. Our
program is designed to help learners become aware of the real-life connections among mathematics and science in their everyday lives. To engage each child completely in the latest technology, each child has access to their own laptop computer in every classroom. Math and Science Magnet also started a weekly news broadcast. In 5th grade, students apply in the spring to have the opportunity to try out for the news show, "Real Time with Math & Science." The entire show is produced by students who meet weekly to come up with stories and broadcast out to the student body each month. Come visit Math and Science and see how our school might be a good choice for your child! Parents and Teachers Helping Students (PATHS) meets on the 2nd Monday of each month in the Library, (across from the Cafeteria) at 3:30 pm. Our PATHS organization is a group of parents, teachers, and administrators working together to make the best possible learning environment for our school. Besides wanting to be involved in the education of our children, our function is to provide the "extra" things for the students, teachers, staff, etc... that are not otherwise eligible for funding, such as PBIS Celebrations, Birthday Cupcakes, School Spirit T-shirts, Fall Festival, and Spring Fling. We also periodically provide special meals for the faculty and staff for special occasions such as Parent/Teacher Conferences.
