Happy Friday! Here is a highlight of the amazing things happening at our school:

  • COGAT Testing: Our 5th graders successfully completed their COGAT testing this week. We’re proud of their focus and effort!
  • 5th Grade Helpers: A big shoutout to our 5th-grade helpers, who do a fantastic job working with our Kindergarteners. Their leadership and kindness are wonderful examples of our school spirit.
  • Classroom Effort: Across all grades, students worked hard and showed great dedication to their learning.
  • Underground Spirit Week: The staff had so much fun participating in Underground Spirit Week, and we noticed some of our students catching on as well! Stay tuned—a video recap of the week will be posted next week to share the excitement with everyone.


We want to remind you that school will be closed next week in observance of Thanksgiving Break

we hope you take this time to relax and enjoy family and friends.

Classes will resume on Monday, December 2, 2024.

From all of us at Marshall, we wish you and your family a great Thanksgiving!


As a reminder please remember to send your students into school with their coats as the weather is starting to turn colder as we enter the winter months. Please be sure to label your students coat so if it were to be lost we can get it back to your student. We have had quite a few students come to the office for coats during recess. If you need assistance with getting your child a coat this winter please reach out to our school social worker Chrissy at rolfesc@talawanda.org.



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.
