About US

Dr. Beth Shumate

I am excited to welcome you to the official website of the Magazine School District. As Superintendent, it is my honor and privilege to lead a district that is deeply committed to empowering students, inspiring excellence, and fostering a sense of community.

Here at Magazine School District, we focus on providing each student with a high-quality education that prepares them for success in an ever-changing world. Our dedicated educators, staff, and administrators work collaboratively to create an environment where students feel seen, supported, challenged, and inspired to reach their full potential no matter where they are headed.

We are proud of the strong relationships we’ve built with our families, community members, and partners. We are a family and we take that very seriously! Together, we are building a future where every student can succeed and make a meaningful impact on the world around them.

Thank you for visiting our website. I invite you to explore all the resources and opportunities we offer, and I look forward to working alongside you as we continue to make Magazine School District a place where all students can thrive.
