Friday Fun Days -
Farewell Dance - June 3, 2022 from 6:30-8:30
The Farewell Dance is the student body's opportunity to bid the 8th graders farewell as they move on to the high school. This is a semi-formal event (no jeans or sweat pants). We will be in need of parent volunteers to chaperone the dance and to donate snacks and beverages for the dance. We do not have a concession stand for this party.
SATURDAY SCHOOL - MAY 21
Marcellus Middle School has added Saturday School to help our students become successful in their classes. We have held three Saturday Schools now and it is proving to be quite successful for getting work completed.
Students with more than 5 missing assignments on the Friday morning prior to the scheduled Saturday School will be required to attend. Parents of students needing to attend Saturday School will be notified the Friday morning before the Saturday School. If you would like to volunteer to help out at Saturday School please contact the middle school office at 269 646-3158. Saturday School will be 8:30-11:30 a.m.
