Rest, recover, repeat...NO!


Full moon is waning, the routines are once again familiar and this semester is going to be great!  Thank you all for your part in getting through a week that presented many unique challenges.  Many of you have no idea what I am talking about and that is exactly how it should be!  Getting back into a routine often presents challenges for students, their parents and even teachers.  I am so proud of the energy, patience and professionalism you all showed this week when some of us were presented with large challenges and new problems to solve.  I hope you all had the weekend to rest and recover!!  Repeat??  I sure hope not! We've got this! 


Your 2019 W-2 is now available to view via Employee Online (Click The HUB top right).  We will notify all when paper 2019 W-2s are available early next week.

3rd Annual Clam Chowder Luncheon
Three years ago, Mr. Kasch and friends read a passage about Clam Chowder in their RTI group.  Those kiddos read all about it.  They had no real experience with it.  He decided to make clam chowder and invite them to lunch.  They loved it!  They asked about it the next year.  In the picture above, they had their 3rd Annual Clam Chowder Luncheon this past week.  It's the little, unplanned things that become staples!  I have no doubt they will show up at Marshall (from MEMS or SMS) next year for their annual tradition.
