Our kindergarten students decided to become "Nature Spies" after reading their weekly story. What a perfect day to discover our playground up close!

Friday, October 13 in Montabella was...cold, rainy, and windy; who wants to run in those conditions?! Maybe the weather provided the motivation to run fast...or maybe the Marion Cross Country Team just loves the challenge! Marion left Montabella with four medals and 7 Personal Records!!
Varsity Athlete Highlights:
Bella Radtke (9th) 27:00 PR and Medalist
Mia Krause (11th) 38:45 PR and first career race
Mason Howell (9th) 21:59 PR and Medalist
Maddox Lodholtz (9th) 22:02 PR
Middle School Athlete Highlights:

If you know a Cross Country athlete, wish them a new PR-their Wednesday meet @ MCE is the conference championship!
Schedule Change: Bellaire has forfeited the varsity football game on Saturday. We are actively seeking a replacement game, and if one is scheduled, it will be announced at that time.
Marion Elementary students and parents, come join the fun at the PTO sponsored Fall Carnival this coming Tuesday from 5:30-7:00.
Marion Cross Country's
5k was a huge success!! Thanks to all who made this possible-runners, sponsors, and volunteers.
The fall carnival activities are closing down now. The movie night will be rescheduled due to the cold and wind.
It was Mix-It-Up Friday in the band room! The middle school band students mixed up their seating to make it more of a challenge and listen to sections they may not usually hear in class.
They are practicing and preparing for their upcoming Halloween concert and art show on Thursday, October 26 @7pm in the HS gym.
More from Cross Country!
Two for one post! The Marion Cross Country Team has been busy representing Marion far away in Traverse City and close to home in Cadillac. Grand Traverse Academy Muddy Relay lived up to its name this year as it does every year! It takes a special kind of person to enjoy a race like this and we have a full team of them!
Our middle school team ran alongside other local middle school teams around the Cadillac CASA fields for Cadillac's MS Costume run. A huge congratulations to Alexis, running her first race of her career.
I am writing this as we ride the bus to Montabella's Mustang Invitational so stay tuned for more from this great group of athletes!
