Goooooood evening Glenn Marlow Families! I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend, especially our Buckaroos, who had a 3-day weekend!!
On Thursday last week, we had the honor of recognizing and celebrating our 'of the Year' winners:
Marlow Teacher of the Year: Mary Beth Wike - 5th Grade Science
Marlow Instructional Assistant of the Year - Kelli Leeper - Exceptional Children Teacher Assistant
Marlow Staff Member of the Year - Pamela Livingston - Child Nutrition Manager
The winners were surprised by their families and loved ones, who helped join in the celebration. Please join me in saying 'CONGRATULATIONS!' to the amazing Marlow members!! See their pictures below.
Beginning this week, there will be a new segment in the Marlow Monday Message titled 'School Community News'. Segments in this section can range in various ways, all relating to our school community and/or Henderson County Public Schools.
We have two, count'em TWO (2) weeks remaining until Spring Break - Let's get to school, work hard, and great things will happen!!!

In This Week's Marlow Monday Message:
UPDATED - Attendance....by the numbers
As said many times before, student attendance plays an integral part of a child's success in school.
Our school wide goal is an Average Weekly Attendance Rate (AWAR) of 95% or greater.
This past week (3/4 - 3/7), our school-wide AWAR was 95.13%.
YOU DID IT!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!! AWESOME-SAUCE!!!!
Let's keep this positive momentum going this week!!!
LifeTouch Spring Pictures
If you have not received your Spring pictures (including class pictures) that were taken back on February 27th, or if you have not received an email with the digital proof of pictures, please know that we are working with LifeTouch to ensure all are families received what they ordered, or a proof.
From LifeTouch:
New this Spring, and moving forward, every student should have received an order form flier that was specific to them. Each flier had a unique code that was specific to each student. Digital proofs were sent to the parents primary email address that is listed in PowerSchool, and all ordering will be done from there. Ordered pictures will be sent directly to the child's home, and no longer sent to school.
Parents must go to the website my.lifetouch.com, create an account, and enter the code to view their child's pictures.
If you do not have your child's specific code, the school will be receiving all codes shortly, and you will be able to obtain it from them. Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we navigate through this new system.
