5th and 6th grade discovery class toothpick challenge!

The Marion Patriot family lost one of our finest last night with the passing of Elmer West. Elmer made a great impact on so many in our region.

You are all loved and he will be greatly missed by so many.

Storybook Pumpkins!
Marion Visual & Performing Arts Magnet School Library recently grew a Storybook Pumpkin Patch! Students in all grades were encouraged to decorate a pumpkin to look like a favorite storybook character. Our creative and talented students did a magnificent job!

Good evening Patriot Parents,
Tomorrow, your student will bring home a paper packet of work. These packets will have 5 days worth of work. This work will be used in the event the district is closed due to inclement weather or for any other reason. There will be a cover sheet explaining the procedure on how and when to complete the work. Please keep these packets in a safe place. If you have any questions please call your building administration. Thank you and have a wonderful evening.

Attention Marion Community!
