School News and Information

Happy Friday!  We hope you’ve had a great week.

As the weather starts to get cooler, please send in a sweatshirt or coat with your child. Some grades have a recess in the morning when it is pretty chilly out still.  Please label coats with your child’s name.

Have a fantastic weekend, and stay warm as the weather continues to cool down!

 

K KIDS

 

PTG

A huge thank you to families for supporting our Marshall staff with a SOUP-er meal for our SUPER staff during conferences on Thursday! It is much appreciated! 

Our next PTG meeting will be on November 13th @ 6:30 - we would love for you to join us. We will provide a Zoom link for those who would like to hear what is going on, but can’t make the meeting in person.

 

HALLOWEEN INFORMATION

Halloween- October 31, 2023

We will celebrate Halloween on Tuesday, October 31, 2023.  Costumes will be permitted with the following guidelines:

1. No Costume Masks

2. No Props

3. Minimal Makeup

4. Costumes must be worn to school.  There will not be a “change time”.  Please make sure that your child will be able to function comfortably throughout the day (bathroom needs, recess, school work, specials) while wearing his/her costume.

We will have our, “parade” outside at 2:30.  If it is raining, we will go with an inside walk through the bottom level of Marshall.

 

Marshall is accepting gently used Halloween costumes to have on hand for students that forget to wear a costume, don't have a costume to wear, or change their mind and wish they'd worn a costume to school on Halloween!  Marshall will have their annual costume parade at school on 10/31 @ 2:30. We do not want any student to feel left out. Thank you!
