The Marion Staff had a blast a couple of weeks ago during their Underground Dress-Up Days! The week was full of surprises, starting with Anything But a Water Bottle Day, followed by Blackout Day, Wacky Wednesday, and even Dress Like a Student Day. They wrapped up the week with a cozy Pajama Day.
The staff had so much fun getting creative with their outfits, but the best part? The students were completely confused, trying to figure out what was going on! It was a week full of laughter, fun, and plenty of curious looks from the students.
The December 9th Marion School Board meeting time will be adjusted to 4:00PM. It will be held in the elementary 5th grade classroom. The agenda is set to be posted on or before this Friday, December 6th. If you have any questions/concerns regarding this change please contact Mr. Brosnahan at the school, 605-648-3615. Thank you!
