We are thrilled to have Mrs. Hice as a part of our Primary School team! She is a true GEM, and we appreciate all she does for our students, staff, and families.
Congratulations, Mrs. Hice! We are so glad you are part of our team! 💎❤️

Reminder... Blood Drive
TODAY, Wednesday, August 26th
at Old Middle School
9am - 2pm

MS/HS parents and guardians, we would like to remind you of the following guidelines for parking and pickup/drop off:     •    All middle and high school student drop-offs and pick-ups must take place in the designated area on the north side of the school building (highlighted in red on the graphic).     •    All traffic should enter and exit following the yellow arrows shown on the map, creating a one-way traffic flow that will keep vehicles moving safely and efficiently.     •    Those who are dropping off or picking up students are asked not to stop or park in the drop-off/pick-up lane for any extended periods of time.     •    Those who need to come inside the building are asked to park in one of the designated parking areas and come in or use the loop on in front of the building.     •    Pick-ups and drop-offs on Gilliam Street are not allowed to improve student safety and reduce congestion on Gilliam Street. Reserved parking spaces are indicated by student paint/artwork and should not be parked in during school hours unless it is the student parking in their own purchased spot. Parents/guardians with questions can contact the school office at (580) 276- 9444 with questions, or email the site office of their child’s principal.

We have loved seeing our high school students' parking spots come to life! 🎨 spaces are still available to pay to reserve, $50 in the MHS office!

Our 5th graders at Marietta Elementary competed in The Marshmallow STEM Challenge today! They worked in groups of 3 and could only use the given materials to build a free-standing structure. Pictured are our 1st place structures from Mrs Stein’s homeroom (Eliza, Ruby, and Daylainis) and Mrs. Haworth’s homeroom (Emma, Christian, and Brett) standing at 18 7/8 inches and 17 inches, respectively. It was a great day working together, building our brains, and maybe eating the leftover marshmallows!🤪

Primary/Elementary Parents,
Just a reminder of our drop-off and pick-up procedures for the parking lot loop. Parents dropping off students at the beginning of the day and/or picking up students at the end of the day will need to follow the loop traffic pattern and remain in their vehicles.
Our school staff will be available to assist students into the building and help them find their classrooms as needed in the morning. At dismissal, staff will assist students out to the pickup loop.
Please do not park and walk your student to the building. This helps us keep everyone as safe as possible and allows the drop-off and pick-up loop to run smoothly and efficiently. Thank you for your help and cooperation!

High School students: We have made some adjustments to schedules based off of class numbers, schedule change requests, and other factors. Not all students were impacted, but we have reprinted all student schedules on pink paper so that students can make sure to have their most updated schedules for tomorrow.

Students can pick their updated schedule up in the HS/MS commons from Ms. Haworth tomorrow morning starting at 7:30 AM.
