Marshall Mustang Memo: Keep calm and finish strong!

We know that we have seen an uptick in student behaviors this week.

It is very clear that for so many, they are experiencing anxiety about the end of the school year. They just got here. The last time we sent them home, we couldn't let them come back for a long, long time. Please be mindful of the behaviors you are seeing. Please reach out to me or Mrs. C. if you would like some assistance with a student who is struggling. They show it in so many ways, I don't have to tell you about it. I just want you to know we are here to support you in supporting them. You are incredibly important to them. They don't want school to be over. They are not counting down to summer. It is a very different kind of year ending. We will all continue to give them our all. They deserve the best of us, even when we know we are spent. Thank you for giving them all you got. It is NOT easy! You are doing an aMAYzing job!

Teacher Supply Request List for 2021/22 <----Click

Please get together with your grade level peers to fill out this form for supply list request for the 2021/22 school year. Please remember, the ambitious goal is to make sure you have EVERYTHING you need to run your classroom without having to ask parents for supplies. However, be mindful that funding is tighter than ever and we may not be able to depend on PTO as before. As always, we will continue to make sure you have what you need without spending your own money.
