2023-24 Information for Incoming 6th Grade Families

Greetings!

In addition to the individualized academic placement letter you received, the contents of this letter include additional information to assist incoming 6th Grade families.

6th Grade ChromeBook Distribution

All Mannion students will receive a CCSD ChromeBook for the 23-24 school year. To alleviate long distribution wait times, we are asking parents/guardians to RSVP for specific time slots to pick up the school issued ChromeBook. 6th Grade Deployment will take place on July 31 (During 6th Grade Orientation) and on August 3 (Evening Times).

Please click here to select your date and time for 6th Grade ChromeBook Distribution

Each time slot is 30 minutes in length with approximately 50 families per time slot. If your first choice is unavailable, this form will direct you to make another selection.

Families with multiple 6th grade students at Mannion only need to sign up using one student’s name, but know that we will issue the ChromeBooks for all members of the household at one time. There is a separate sign up for 7th/8th grade students on August 1, 2023, so if you have students in both 6th grade and 7th/8th grade, I suggest you sign up for a time slot on 7th/8th Grade ChromeBook Distribution, not 6th Grade Orientation Day (each 6th grader will get his or her schedule and locker as part of the day’s activities, but the older student will not be able to get it until Back to School Day.)

If you are able to print and complete this paperwork PRIOR to ChromeBook Distribution, it will assist and limit wait times.

Complete OnLine Registration for 23-24

Please be sure to complete your OLR (OnLine Registration) through the Campus Portal. This is where you update your emergency contact information, email for ParentLink, and phone numbers. This is critical to ensure effective parent and school communication throughout the school year. If you have not already updated your OLR, please do so before June 16, 2023.

6th Grade Supply Lists

Mannion Middle School will post the 2023-2024 School Supply List on the website. These lists are available under both the drop down menu of “Parents” or “Students” and organized by grade. Things may change, but this gives families an idea for supplies to take advantage of summer sales.

Registration for Student-Athletes

Students who plan to try out for flag football, basketball, or soccer in the 2023-2024 school year must be registered online by a parent through aktivate.com (this site used to be known as Register My Athlete). Additional information about our fall sport, Flag Football, is available by CLICKING HERE.

Flag Football intramural and tryout information is available on the Mannion Website under Athletics & Spirit Groups. Please review the schedule and make sure any student interested in tryouts completes Aktivate prior to August 10, 2023.

Cheer tryouts have been scheduled for September 1, 2023. Mandatory cheer clinics will take place on August 29 – August 31 to prepare students for tryouts. Aktivate is NOT required for cheer tryouts, but it is required if the student is selected for the squad.

Register Student’s Bike, Skateboard or Scooter

All Mannion students who park a bike, skateboard, or scooter in the designated area must register their item prior to the first day of school. Each student will receive an assigned “space” to park the item. Students are required to bring a lock and park their item in the appropriately assigned space. Please use this link to register your bike, skateboard, or scooter for the 23-24 school year.

Questions & Additional Assistance

Mannion Middle School is closed from June 19 through July 18, 2023, but you should continue to check our school’s website for additional information and updates:
