An added addition to Mayfest will be the Marshall Market.  If you have a small business and would like to set up a booth please check out this flyer for more information.  

The Marshall PTG is making plans for the Marshall Mayfest.  The attached flyer was sent home with students earlier.  Please use the following form and consider volunteering to help.  We need parents to help organize the event as well as run the event.

Oxford Lane Library Tutoring Program

Students Helping Students" program.

Drop off and Pick Up Reminders

Please work with your child on being able to exit the car on their own.  We have seen an increase of parents getting out of the car to get their child out.  This creates a safety concern as well as slows down the drop up and pick up process.  Also please remember to pull forward and fill in all available space in the line so that we can keep the line as short as possible and keep the line moving.  Please make sure you have your name sign displayed so we can easily enter the names for the correct pick up order.  Thank you for your help.  

Fees

Chromebook/IPad insurance cannot be waived.  School fees can be paid on the Talawanda website via EZPay or by sending a check to school with your child.  Please include the child’s name in the memo. 

Absences 

If your child is going to be absent, please call the Marshall Attendance Line @ 513-273-3600 by 10:00 a.m.

TSD Lunch Program

The National Lunch Program has extended the free meal status for all students for breakfast and lunch for the 2021-2022 school year.  It is still important to turn in the Free/Reduced Lunch Application in order to qualify for other benefits.  

April Elementary Lunch Menu - Changes may be announced during the month due to delivery issues.
