NEWS & INFORMATION NEWS & INFORMATION

We had a wonderful week here at school! Our students in grades 3-5 did a great job finishing up state testing, and we know it’s a lot—thank you so much for your continued support and cooperation throughout the process. As we look ahead, we have many exciting events coming up. Please be sure to check the calendar below so you don’t miss any of the fun! As the end of the school year approaches, we’re focusing on finishing strong, academically and behaviorally.


Our Spring Fling Dance is TONIGHT, 6:00 - 8:00. Even if you don't have a ticket, you can get one at the door! We hope to see you!

You can stay in your car, and we will load your items for you! Thank you for supporting Marshall PTG! (***If the flowers are ready for pick up earlier, we will do an all call and post on FaceBook!**)


Marshall's Mayfest is FOUR weeks away! We’re gearing up for it and need your help to make it a success! We’re looking for over 85 volunteers to support various activities and ensure everything runs smoothly. We still need 60 volunteers! Please consider signing up here to help. Volunteers will receive a slice of pizza, chips, and a drink as a Thank You for helping! Check back next week to see how many more volunteers we still need—let’s work together to make this year’s MayFest the best one yet!


PICK UP

To help ensure students arrive at their correct dismissal location, we kindly ask that you contact the main office by 2:30 PM if there are any changes to your child’s dismissal plan. While we understand that emergencies can happen, we’ve noticed a significant increase in last-minute changes around 3:00 PM, which can cause confusion and delays. By notifying us by 2:30 PM, we can make sure your child receives a dismissal note and reaches the right spot after school. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.
