Here is a shout out to Mrs. Louwers at Marion High School. She applied and was awarded a $500 grant from Members First Credit Union from their Teach Grants. She has secured these funds to assist with materials for hOUR 10 (MHS's social emotional session once a week) groups and supplies for our Recognition Rallies that happen quarterly to honor and shine the light on students in our school. As part of the SEL Leadership Team at MHS, Mrs. Louwers knows this will help educate and encourage our kids with social awareness, relationship skills, self management, decision making skills and self awareness.

Happy Holidays from the staff at Marion Elementary!

Schedule Change: The JV boys basketball game for tonight, December 19, has been canceled. The Varsity boys game is still on and will now start at 6pm. Let's go Eagles!

Ms. Russell’s 4th grade class has completed a few puzzles this year but this has been the largest yet! 1,000 pieces! Students work hard individually problem solving getting their portion together. Then work as a team to put it all together without ever looking at a picture of what they’re making. Happy Holidays!!

SLS (Students Leading Students) and the MHS SEL team and staff would like to remind everyone to take care of yourself the next few days. As we wrap up our semester and have exams on Thursday and Friday this week, you want yourself at your best. Shout out to SLS for creating the bulletin board in our main hall to keep stress relievers, exam/study skills, and stress signs front and center this week. Enlarge the photo for details, but here is the short version:
For stress relief: get enough sleep, focus on your strengths, talk to someone, engage in physical activity, and take time to do something that makes you feel happy.
For exam best results: Drink water, prepare as best you can, take small breaks, have a snack before, be comfortable, and explain your ideas to others to prepare.
MHS staff and SLS wish all the students GOOD THINKING this week!

Some of our second graders have been working with robots this week and learning to use block coding. Today they had to write code to make their robot go around completely a square obstacle course and land on a specific place. They learned what didn't work and made changes to their program. All did well but the group of Atlas and Leilani completed the task with their program.
