Update on COVID cases: Contact tracing has been completed and sent to the Central Michigan Health Department. The health department will contact you directly if your child has been in contact with the student; you will get further directions from them on the next steps to take. Thank you for your patience during this matter.
All practices have been cancelled for today. Stay tuned for an update regarding tomorrow's practices.
Schedule Change: Breakfast and lunch pick up for virtual students will be Wednesday, 10:00-10:45am at both the elementary and high school buildings for this week only.
Over the weekend, Marion Public Schools was notified that students attending our elementary and middle school are at risk of testing positive for COVID.
While we are waiting on guidance from the Central Michigan Health Department, and out of an abundance of caution, Marion Public Schools will be closed on Monday, October 26 and Tuesday, October 27, 2020. In following our established, internal protocols, we are using Monday and Tuesday in order to deep clean all district buildings and facilities and to conduct contact tracing. We hope to reopen on Wednesday, October 28, 2020. The next two days will be treated like snow days, with no instruction.
We will continue to update Marion families as we get more information.
All staff should report to the high school cafeteria on Monday, October 26, 2020 at 9:00 am to help with contact tracing.
