Summer learning is HOT!
This summer we have focused on math and reading. Most of our students benefited from the skills that they already knew, like fact fluency and problem-solving, but also gained a deeper understanding of topics that they may have struggled with during the school year. Students followed their workshop menu each day, and of course, they slipped in some fun activities and theme days to keep motivated. Thank you to all students and teachers who helped with our summer school program.
For the 2023-2024 school year, Marion will continue with our "late start Wednesdays". School will start at 9:00 am at the elementary; school will start at 8:50 am at the high school.
Tomorrow is our last WAVELENGTH WEDNESDAY!!! If your haven't joined the fun, please plan to come for some math tutoring. Mrs. Deighton will help with your summer math workbook, a math concept that has always bugged you, or play a math game. This is available at the elementary from 11-2 tomorrow! Call or stop by and get on the same wavelength with math before next school year!

A great opportunity for young players to work on basic basketball skills in a fun and motivating environment!
