ALL BULLDOG

Let's have a great week, Marysville. The Christmas season is upon us and with that comes a time to share the holiday spirit and help others who might need a lift this time of year. We've had so many students doing so many great things in our school and in our community, it's a great day to be a Bulldog! Merry Christmas, Marysville!

Junior cheer team member Alexis Grable was invited to perform in the Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade in Honolulu, Hawaii this past week. Those athletes who were invited to perform are part of a select group of All-Americans identified at Varsity Spirit summer camps across the country. All-Americans are based on superior cheerleading or dance skills as well as leadership skills.

Lexi performed with Varsity Spirit All-Americans in an exclusive performance prior to the opening ceremony of the parade, and was a part of the parade before thousands of fans lining the streets of Waikiki Beach. This event marks the 81st Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. The parade theme was "remembering the past and celebrating our future."

Besides being able to perform for true national heroes, athletes had the opportunity to meet cheerleaders and dancers from across the nation and enjoyed a memorable trip to the Pearl Harbor Memorial and the USS Missouri Battleship.

Mrs. Jeane Bruna pushes her students every day to be better. Her classes help students with skills they can take with them to the workplace. Her leadership in our school as a mentor, head of our CTE reporting, and someone who knows Marysville inside and out, is invaluable to all! Thanks, Mrs. Bruna!

Colton leads in so many ways! He is a good friend to all. He steps in to help when others look the other way. He is a great role model for all of our younger students. Thanks, Colton!

Allison is an active student whether acting in our plays, playing in our band, or just being a great student. Well-deserved, Allison!

Rowan and Giovanna are hard working, intelligent, and dependable. Every day before leaving class they make sure that the tables and materials are cleaned and organized. Spending time with them is a great way to end the day.

Don't forget that High School Bulldogs of the Week get to park on Walnut Street up close to the front door. Or they can have a movie pass to the Astro 3 Theater! Our Junior High Bulldog automatically gets a movie pass to Astro 3!
