Merry Christmas Red Raiders!
#RedRaiderNation #MerryChristmas2022
A great game for our boys JV basketball team with a win against Akron-Fairgrove. Time to check out our Varsity boys.
We are proud of the results of our Superintendent's leadership in our schools. Mr. Karaffa proudly attributes the district's success to every staff and faculty employee who embraces the goals and standards! When interviewed, he said,
"I could never have been marked highly effective without the help of those around me. The dedicated staff in our Central Office, Julie Quade and Deanna King keep things in front of me and make sure I am where I need to be. The building principals, Mr. Dunk, and Mrs. Owen, are top-notch and work hard to motivate their students and staff. Alisha Vislosky, our Director of Special Education, has been essential to our student success. Our Transportation Department Supervisor, Kay Taylor works closely with our dedicated bus drivers to streamline our transportation program. We have amazing teachers, coaches, and support staff that keep our students engaged and focused on learning. When you add it all up, it is a great time to be a Red Raider."
Regarding facilities, Mr. Karaffa gives all of the credit to Mike Nickens, Head of Maintenance, and his custodial staff for the upkeep of the buildings and on the grounds. Karaffa also praised the financial work of Brandi Bishop, the business manager for the district, whom he described as "efficient, very knowledgeable, and a significant asset to their administrative team at Marlette.
