Marshall Elementary Weekly E-News

December 9, 2022

School News and Information

Happy Friday, another week in the books. We had a great week this week. Great job to our students and staff! We had a great 2nd Grade Concert on Wednesday! The students put on a wonderful Elvis themed holiday show. Thank you for a wonderful evening students and Mr. Menezes.

We also had a great Spark Day today where students heard from 3 presenters sharing their Sparks - the things that motivates them and makes them happy. We had woodworkers, dancers, beekeepers, sports casters, drumming/rhythm, model airplanes and many more. Thanks to Mrs. Siebald for organizing the day and for all of our speakers. The students enjoyed exploring different sparks.

This will be our last E-News for 2022. We will start again on Friday, January 6, 2023. We hope you have a safe holiday break.

The last day of school for students is Friday, December 16, 2022. Students return to school on Thursday, January 5, 2023.

Reading at Home (RAH)

RAH will be back this year grades K-5 started today and continues each friday. Use this link to the RAH recording Sheet For our upper level readers, chapter books count as 1 book for every 25 pages of the chapter book read. One of the best ways for children to grow in their reading is to read. Just like the expression goes - practice makes perfect.
