Bray's Bulletin
Welcome to the 2020-2021 School Year!
Greetings Ram Family!
Mission: We will intentionally create a safe, risk taking environment for students that models and fosters effective communication, collaboration and critical thinking.
Vision: Explore your passion commit to your future.
Welcome LMS Rams to the 2020-2021 School Year!
This year will look like no other school year in the history of education, and we as students and educators are very likely taking a part in the first wave of changes that will change the way education is conducted for future generations of students. The last several months have been a challenging time for many students, their families, communities, and our country. Even though our students will not be physically present on campus for at least the first two weeks of school, I look forward to interacting with them in our new virtual environment, getting to know our students and their families throughout the school year, and embracing this change in education.
As we get ready to open our virtual doors on Monday morning please know and be confident in the fact that our students and families are supported by an amazing group of faculty, staff, and administrators that will walk beside them and support them in their learning whether it be in the virtual environment or physically on campus. We look forward to seeing all of our students on Monday morning August 24th for the first day of school.
Marshall LMS now has a Facebook page and a Twitter page. Please follow us @NISDMarshallLMS and https://www.facebook.com/MarshallLMS for important updates regarding Marshall LMS.
