Notes from Ms. Patterson
Welcome to the 2020-21 School Year! We are so happy to have all of you join us for what will be an amazing year filled with lots of learning, even when we have to be at a distance! Our staff views our school as a #MarshallFamily and we are happy to have you as a part of it!
We are excited to continue to learn how we can better meet student needs this year in this new format. Teachers and staff have worked to build schedules and routines that support the needs you identified last spring so we can help students meet learning targets for their grade level. Soon, your child will be participating in our fall universal assessments. We’ll be asking families to support their child by encouraging them to do their best and ensuring their child has a quiet workspace to complete the assessments on-line.
We look forward to working with you and your family throughout the year to make it the best year yet!
Marshall Family goes Gold!
