Lunch Delivery Reminder

For student safety, we ask families to avoid using DoorDash, Grubhub, or other food delivery services for student lunches. Delivery drivers are not permitted inside the school office, and any food delivered will be left in the foyer for student pickup. Thank you for helping us limit unnecessary visitors to our building and keep Marie Murphy safe!

Debate Team (5th-8th Grade)

We need 6 registrants to run Debate and we currently have 3. Consider joining the fun!


Do you love to share your ideas, build strong arguments, and think on your feet? The Debate Team is a great way to strengthen your public speaking and critical thinking skills while working with teammates to tackle interesting topics. Join us to practice persuasive speaking, respectful listening, and lively discussions in a fun, supportive environment!

This experience is sponsored by the ACES debate company and is an additional cost. See the website for more information.
