Principal's Message

When students enter the doors of Magnolia Elementary they will grow academically, socially, and emotionally as they are provided an education that will impact them for life. We believe in all students! Everyone at MES is held to a high standard of rigor and accountability. Our amazing teachers believe in providing a safe, kind, and loving environment for children to excel. Magnolia Elementary carries a strong tradition of community and family values that continue to build from year to year.

Looking back at my childhood memories from attending Magnolia Elementary, I remember being filled with the promise of a bright future. I built lasting relationships with many teachers and classmates! One of my goals for the students at MES is to help them believe in themselves, build dreams, create a strong educational foundation, and foster a strong work ethic. MES believes in empowering students to create and achieve all their future goals.

Assistant Principal- Brooke Owens

Assistant Principal - Jackie Moore

My name is Jacquelyn Moore and it is my honor to be the Assistant Principal at Magnolia Elementary. I received my Bachelor of Science from Texas A&M University, graduating Cum Laude. I later earned my Masters in Education Administration from Lamar university. I have been part of Magnolia ISD since 1999.

Since my time in MISD, I have held many positions and leadership roles. I taught First Grade at MES for ten years and was honored to also support our English Learners as a Reading Interventionist. My professional journey led me to the district level as I continued to support teaching and learning as a RLA Specialist, RTI Coordinator and later had the privilege to serve as an interim Assistant Principal at many of our Elementary schools. I have been blessed to work alongside outstanding district and campus leaders, talented teachers and enthusiastic students who are eager to learn. In 2019, I returned to Magnolia Elementary as the Assistant Principal and it is with great pleasure that I am able to support our students in their academic journey as they set and accomplish their individual academic goals. My dedication includes encouraging students to believe in themselves, recognize their unique strengths and always be their BEST!

I have been blessed with four children who all attended Magnolia Elementary from Kindergarten through Fifth grade. All of my children graduated from Magnolia West High School. The educational experiences they had while in MISD have prepared them for their continued educational journeys. We are extremely proud to celebrate our first Texas A&M graduate in 2022.

Welcome to Magnolia Elementary! We are excited to embrace the opportunity to support your children as they begin their educational journey.

Welcome!

Hello. My name is Seantia King and I am so excited to serve as the school counselor here at Magnolia Elementary School. I received my Bachelor of Science in Education form Stephen F. Austin State University as well as my Masters degree from Capella University in School Counseling.

Personally, I have three daughters with my husband of 15 years. Oh, and I can't forget about our labradoodle Charlie!

As a counselor of Magnolia Elementary, my goal is to ensure that each student has the opportunity to grow academically, emotionally, and socially. I believe that every student is unique and can become a productive member of our society. My goal is to foster a safe and positive learning environment in which each student can realize their own potential. I work with students in a small group setting, whole group setting, and individually as well, on topics such as problem solving, bullying, self-esteem, and social skills.

I am available to conference with you should you have a question or concern regarding your child. I look forward to a productive and successful 2022-23 school year!
